Gauss Jordan Example 6x6

The system of equations is solved using Gauss-Jordan elimination. The steps are: 1) Write the system as an augmented matrix and row reduce. 2) Eliminate variables one by one until an identity matrix is reached. 3) Read the solution set off the identity matrix where the variables are the values of the leading 1's in each row. The solution set is: a=1, b=-2, c=3, d=4, e=2, f=-1.

Elimination.

𝑎 + 𝑏 − 2𝑐 + 𝑑 + 3𝑒 − 𝑓 = 4 𝑅1
