The video tutorial explains the use of matrices to solve systems of equations with multiple unknowns. It covers two methods: the augmented matrix method using reduced row echelon form (RREF) and the inverse matrix method. The tutorial demonstrates how to input matrices into a calculator and solve for variables using both methods. The video concludes with a homework assignment to practice both methods on a given problem.

What is the primary purpose of using matrices in this context?

• To graph linear equations

• To perform basic arithmetic operations

• To solve multiple equations with multiple unknowns

• To solve single equations with one unknown
