a)

2R2 + R2 -> R2

b)

-2R1 + R2 -> R2

c)

R3 +R2 --> R3

7.

Aina is simplifying the matrix using Gaussian Elimination. Did she complete the step correctly?

a)

No, she should have changed the 2 to a zero and multiplied -2 by R2 and added R1

b)

No, she wanted to change the 3 to a zero so she should have multiplied R2 and added it to R3

c)

Yes. When you need a zero you multiply by the number's reciprocal.

d)

No. Just punch in the calculator. Who cares about Carl Gauss
