Jake is going to solve the system of equations using a matrix equation. He sets up his matrix equation as follows.
[5-26-1][xy]=[37]
Is this a correct? If not, choose the correct reason why not.
  1. It is correct.
  2. There must be a fraction in the matrix equation since there is one in the system of equations.
  3. The coefficients don't match up to the correct variables in the matrix equation.
  4. Systems of linear equations with equations not in standard form can never be put into a matrix equation.

When representing a system of linear equations in two variables as a matrix equation, one can use the general form A[xy]=b. For a given system of linear equations, is it possible for the 2-by-2 matrix A to have different entries? Why or why not?
  1. Yes. Either equation in the system of equations can be multiplied by a constant. This will also affect b.
  2. No. A different matrix A would result in a different answer regardless of anything else.
  3. It depends on whether the system of equations is dependent or independent.
  4. No. Only a system of equations that is inconsistent, and therefore has no answer anyways, can have different A matrices.
