This video tutorial demonstrates how to use the Desmos matrix calculator to solve a system of two linear equations with two unknowns using a matrix equation. It covers forming the matrix equation, solving for the variable matrix using the inverse of the coefficient matrix, and verifying the solution by substituting the results back into the original equations. The tutorial also provides step-by-step instructions for entering matrices into the Desmos calculator and converting results to fraction form.
