Question
Solve the system of linear equations. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list. If there is no solution, enter NO SOLUTION. If the system has an infinite number of solutions, set x_3 = t and solve for x_1 and x_2 in terms of t.) 3x_1 - 2x_2 + 4x_3 = 1 x_1 + x_2 - 2x_3 = 3 2x_1 - 3x_2 + 6x_3 = 8 (x_1, x_2, x_3) = () Find the solution set of the system of linear equations represented by the augmented matrix. (If there is no solution, enter NO SOLUTION. If the system has an infinite number of solutions, set x_4 = t and solve for x_1, x_2, and x_3 in terms of t.)

Solution:
3. First we set up agumented matrix such that Ax = B
and transform this matrix [A : B ] in row echelon form using elementry operation
As we can see that our reduced matrix is
which is pivot in only first two column
therefore
system has infinite number of solution
let free variable x3 = t
now
1
we get from matrix
x1 = 0
x2 -2x3 = 0
x2 = 2x3
x2 = 2t ( x3 = t)
Answer: (x1 , x2 ,x3 ) = ( 0 ,2t , t)
