Problem 41

In Problems 35-42, each matrix is the reduced echelon matrix for a system with variables \(x_{1}, x_{2}, x_{3}\), and \(x_{4}\). Find the solution set of each system. \(\left[\begin{array}{rrrr:r}1 & 3 & 0 & 0 & 9 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 2 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & -3 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0\end{array}\right]\)

Problem 42

Solve each system by using the substitution method. \(\left(\begin{array}{c}\frac{2 x}{3}-\frac{y}{2}=\frac{3}{5} \\\ \frac{x}{4}+\frac{y}{2}=\frac{7}{80}\end{array}\right)\)

Problem 42
