Name:________________ 1. Do by hand and record all steps (on separate paper!) -x 5y 5z = 2 4x 5y + 4z = 19 x + 5y z = -20 Rewrite these equations using matrices!!

___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ x x 5 y 5 z ___ ___ y = 4 x 5 y + 4 z = ___ ___ z x + 5 y z = 20 ___

matrix1

matrix2

matrix3

matrix4

Now we can write an equation of matrix1 * matrix2 = matrix4 We want to solve for x, y, and z. So wed like to just divide by matrix1. Unfortunately we cannot divide matrices, how can we get around this?? Yessss by using the inverse!! So
x ___ y = ___ z ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___
1

___ ___ ___

YAY TYPE THIS IN TO YOUR CALCULATOR!! TO TYPE IN YOUR CALCULATOR DO THIS: You need to create two matrices. Matrix1 is going to be called matrix [A] on your calculator and matrix4 is going to be [B] To create matrices on your calculator do the following: 2nd Matrix Highlight 1:[A] Edit Enter 3 Enter 3 Enter (Make sure you know why we do 3 and 3) Follow the same steps (except adjust the numbers) to create matrix B. To solve we need to put into our calculator [A]-1[B] To type a matrix we go to the matrix menu (2nd matrix) but then just scroll down to choose [A] then use the x-1 button to get that and then do matrix B and TA-DAAAAA: BOOOOOM WINNNN ANSWERRRRRRRRRR
