Use an inverse matrix to solve the system of equations, if possible.

[tex]\[
\begin{array}{l}
x + 5y - 3z = -10 \\
-5x + 6y - 5z = -21 \\
-x + 8y - 8z = -25
\end{array}
\][/tex]

A. [tex]\((1, -1, 2)\)[/tex]

B. [tex]\((-6, -5, 2)\)[/tex]

C. [tex]\((-6, -2, -2)\)[/tex]

D. No solution



Answer :

To solve the given system of equations using an inverse matrix, follow these detailed steps:

### Step 1: Write the system of equations in matrix form.

The system of equations given is:

[tex]\[ \begin{array}{l} x + 5y - 3z = -10 \\ -5x + 6y - 5z = -21 \\ -x + 8y - 8z = -25 \end{array} \][/tex]

This can be written as a matrix equation [tex]\(A \mathbf{x} = \mathbf{B}\)[/tex], where:

[tex]\[ A = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 5 & -3 \\ -5 & 6 & -5 \\ -1 & 8 & -8 \end{pmatrix}, \quad \mathbf{x} = \begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \\ z \end{pmatrix}, \quad \mathbf{B} = \begin{pmatrix} -10 \\ -21 \\ -25 \end{pmatrix} \][/tex]

### Step 2: Check if the matrix [tex]\(A\)[/tex] is invertible.

To find the solution, we need to check if the matrix [tex]\(A\)[/tex] is invertible. A matrix is invertible if its determinant is non-zero.

(The check has shown that [tex]\(A\)[/tex] is invertible.)

### Step 3: Find the inverse of matrix [tex]\(A\)[/tex].

Since [tex]\(A\)[/tex] is invertible, we can find the inverse [tex]\(A^{-1}\)[/tex]. The solution to the system of equations is given by:

[tex]\[ \mathbf{x} = A^{-1} \mathbf{B} \][/tex]

### Step 4: Perform the matrix multiplication.

Using the inverse of the matrix [tex]\(A\)[/tex] and the vector [tex]\(\mathbf{B}\)[/tex], we perform the multiplication to find the values of [tex]\(x\)[/tex], [tex]\(y\)[/tex], and [tex]\(z\)[/tex].

The calculation yields:

[tex]\[ \mathbf{x} = \begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ -1 \\ 2 \end{pmatrix} \][/tex]

So the solution to the system of equations is:

[tex]\[ x = 1, \quad y = -1, \quad z = 2 \][/tex]

### Step 5: Compare the solution with the given choices.

The given choices were:
1. [tex]\([1, -1, 2]\)[/tex]
2. [tex]\([-6, -5, 2]\)[/tex]
3. [tex]\([-6, -2, -2]\)[/tex]
4. No solution

Comparing the solution [tex]\((1, -1, 2)\)[/tex] with the given choices, we find that it matches choice 1.

### Conclusion:

The solution to the system of equations is [tex]\((1, -1, 2)\)[/tex], which corresponds to choice 1. Therefore, the correct answer is:

[tex]\[ \boxed{1} \][/tex]
