Solving System of linear equations by Matrices
 The procedure for solving system of linear equations in two variables using matrices is:
1. Write the equations in the form
a x+b y=c
a x+b y= c
2. Write the matrix equations corresponding to these equations,
a b
× =
a b
3. Determine the inverse matrix of

Multiply each side of × = by the inverse of matrix.


4. Solve for x and y by equating corresponding elements.

Example (1)
3 +5 −7=0
Use matrices to solve the system
4 − 3 − 19 = 0

Note:
 The procedure for solving system of linear equations in three variables using matrices is:

1. In two closed loops of an electrical circuit, the currents flowing are given by the
simultaneous equations:
I + 2I + 4 = 0
5I + 3I − 1 = 0
Use matrices to solve for I and I .
2. The relationship between the displacement s, velocity v, and acceleration a, of a piston is
given by the equations:
s + 2v + 2a = 4
3s – v + 4a = 25
3s + 2v – a = 4

the following equations for current flow in milliamperes:
2I + 3I − 4I = 26
I − 5I − 3I = −87
7I + 2I + 6I = 12
Use Cramer’s rule to solve for I , I and I .
