Question

What is the value of the system determinant for the following system of equations? 6x + y = 4 5x + y - 7 = 0 1 -1 31

Answer 1

To find the system determinant, we first need to write the coefficients of the variables as a matrix:

| 6 1 |

| 5 1 |

Then we can calculate the determinant using the formula:

| 6 1 |

| 5 1 | = (6*1) - (5*1) = 1

Therefore, the value of the system determinant is 1.
