Question

Perform the row operation on the given augmented matrix

[ 1 2 -4| -5 ]

[ 8 6 5| 2]

[-5 6 1| 4]. -8R1+R2

Answer 1

GG easy mah dude

-8R1+R2 means take row 1, multiply it by -8 and add it to the 2nd row

-8R1=-8 -16 32 | 40

adding tat to the 2nd row we get

0 -10 37 | 42

so the resulting matrix is

`\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&2&-4 | -5\\0&-10&37 | 42\\-5&6&1 | 4\end{array}\right]`
