The information below is the description of how to solve the system of equations using matrices on the TI-84 Plus Calculator. These are the steps that you will use on the calculator. Fill in the blanks with the correct steps and words for the steps on the calculator. 1. First, you have to create your input matrix to know what is being typed into the calculator. When we set the calculator, we select 2nd (blue button) and the matrix button. Once we get to the matrix screen, we scroll over to the EDIT option, and create your matrix. The matrix is a 3x4 matrix, and we input the correct coefficients from the input matrix.2. Second, we click the 2nd button and MODE to quit to the home screen. Once we are there, we select 2nd and Matrix again, back to the matrix screen. This time we scroll over to MATH, and scroll down to find the rref( option and hit enter.3. Last, the rref( option shows on our blank screen, and have one last step to complete the problem. We go back to the matrix screen again by pressing 2nd and Matrix. We should now be under the NAME section of the matrix screen. Select your matrix that you chose to edit. If you did it correctly, it should show 3x4 next to your matrix. Hit enter, and your screen should now show rref([A]. Close the parenthesis, hit enter, and you get your output matrix. You have completed the problem, and now can read the output matrix to determine if you have a solution, no solution, or infinite solutions. Look at the output matrix I provided below. Does it represent a solution, no solution, or infinite solutions? Why? If there is a solution, what is x, y and z? Look at the output matrix I provided below. Does it represent a solution, no solution, or infinite solutions? Why? If there is a solution, what is x, y and z? Look at the output matrix I provided below.
