bracket.
• The numbers (or functions) in a matrix are called entries or elements.

Introduction
• A linear system of m equations in n unknowns x1, … , xn is a set of equations
of the form
a11 x1 + ! + a1n xn = b1
a21 x1 + ! + a2 n xn = b2
!!!!!!!!
am1 x1 + ! + amn xn = bm .
• The system is called linear because each variable xj appears in the first power
only
• If all bj are zero, the system is said to be homogeneous.
• If at least one bj is not zero, then (1) is called a nonhomogeneous system.
• A solution of (1) is a set of numbers x1, … , xn that satisfies all the m equations.
• A solution vector of (1) is a vector x whose components form a solution of (1).

Solution of Linear Systems
• The solution of a linear system can be obtained by performing elementary row
operations in a process known as Gauss elimination.
• Elementary row operation for matrices include:
1. Interchange of two rows
2. Addition of a constant multiple of one row to another row
3. Multiplication of a row by a nonzero constant c

• We now call a linear system S1 row-equivalent to a linear system S2 if S1 can


be obtained from S2 by (finitely many!) row operations.

Theorem 1: Row-equivalent linear systems have the same set of solutions.


• No column operations on the augmented matrix are permitted in this context
because they would generally alter the solution set.

Advanced Engineering Mathematics BatStateU Alangilan, EIM Department Engr. Jefril M. Amboy, MSECE 22
Terminologies
A linear system is called overdetermined if it has more equations than
unknowns, determined if m = n, and underdetermined if it has fewer
equations than unknowns.

Furthermore, a system is called consistent if it has at least one solution (thus,


one solution or infinitely many solutions), but inconsistent if it has no
solutions at all

Advanced Engineering Mathematics BatStateU Alangilan, EIM Department Engr. Jefril M. Amboy, MSECE 23
Example 8: Gauss Elimination
• Solve the linear system

x1 - x2 + x3 = 0
- x1 + x2 - x3 = 0
10 x2 + 25 x3 = 90
20 x1 + 10 x2 = 80.

Advanced Engineering Mathematics BatStateU Alangilan, EIM Department Engr. Jefril M. Amboy, MSECE 24

ê ú
ë0 30 -20 80 û Row 4 - 20 Row 1 30 x2 - 20 x3 = 80.

• Eliminate x2

Advanced Engineering Mathematics BatStateU Alangilan, EIM Department Engr. Jefril M. Amboy, MSECE 25
Example 8:
• Result
é 1 -1 1 0ù x1 - x2 + x3 = 0
ê0 10 25 90 ú 10 x2 + 25 x3 = 90
ê ú
ê0 0 -95 -190 ú Row 3 - 3 Row 2 -95 x3 = -190
ê ú 0= 0.
ë 0 0 0 0 û
Back Substitution. Determination of x3, x2, x1 (in this order)
Working backward from the last to the first equation of this “triangular”
system, we can now readily find x3, then x2, and then x1:
190
𝑥1 = = 2, 10𝑥2 + 25 2 = 90, 𝑥2 = 4, 𝑥. = 𝑥2 − 𝑥1 = 2
95

Therefore, the solution is unique.

The Row Echelon Form
• At the end of the Gauss elimination the form of the coefficient matrix, the
augmented matrix, and the system itself are called the row echelon form.
• The original system of m equations in n unknowns has augmented matrix
[A | b]. This is to be row reduced to matrix [R | f].
• The two systems Ax = b and Rx = f are equivalent, and the solutions are
identical.

Information from the Row-Echelon Form
The number of nonzero rows, r, in the row-reduced coefficient matrix R is
called the rank of R and also the
rank of A. Here is the method for determining whether
Ax = b has solutions and what they are:
• (a) No solution. If r is less than m (meaning that R actually has at least one
row of all 0s) and at least one of the numbers fr+1, fr+2, … , fm is not zero, then
the system Rx = f is inconsistent: No solution is possible. Therefore, the system
Ax = b is inconsistent as well.
• See Example 9, where r = 2 < m = 3 and fr+1 = f3 = 12.

Advanced Engineering Mathematics BatStateU Alangilan, EIM Department Engr. Jefril M. Amboy, MSECE 33
Information from the Row-Echelon Form
If the system is consistent (either r = m, or r < m and all the numbers fr+1, fr+2, … ,
fm are zero), then there are solutions.

(b) Unique solution. If the system is consistent and r = n, there is exactly one
solution, which can be found by back substitution. See Example 8, where r = n
= 3 and m = 4, and Example 11

(c) Infinitely many solutions. To obtain any of these solutions, choose values of
xr+1, … , xn arbitrarily. Then solve the rth equation for xr (in terms of those
arbitrary values), then the (r − 1)st equation for xr−1, and so on up the line. See
Example 10.

Inverse of a Matrix
• The inverse of an n × n matrix A = [ajk] is denoted by A−1 and is an n × n matrix
such that
(1) AA−1 = A−1A = I
where I is the n × n unit matrix.

• If A has an inverse, then A is called a nonsingular matrix. If A has no inverse,


then A is called a singular matrix.
• If A has an inverse, the inverse is unique.

Theorem for the Existence of the Inverse Matrix

The inverse A−1 of an n × n matrix A exists if and only if rank A = n, thus if and only
if det A ≠ 0. Hence A is nonsingular if rank A = n and is singular if rank A < n.

Ax = λx.
• Where A is a square matrix.
• The λ’s that satisfy the equation are called eigenvalues of A and the
corresponding nonzero x’s that also satisfy are called eigenvectors of A.

Eigenvalues
• In matrix notation,
( A - l I ) x = 0.
• This homogeneous linear system of equations has a nontrivial solution if and
only if the corresponding determinant of the coefficients is zero:

• A − λI is called the characteristic matrix and D(λ) the characteristic


determinant of A. Equation (4) is called the characteristic equation of A. By
developing D(λ) we obtain a polynomial of nth degree in λ. This is called the
characteristic polynomial of A.
