Problem 273

(a) The given matrix is the augmented matrix for a system of linear equations.
Give the vector form for the general solution.
\[ \left[\begin{array}{rrrrr|r}
1 & 0 & -1 & 0 &-2 & 0 \\
0 & 1 & 2 & 0 & -1 & 0 \\
0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 0 \\
\end{array} \right].\]

(b) Let
\[A=\begin{bmatrix}
1 & 2 & 3 \\
4 &5 &6
\end{bmatrix}, B=\begin{bmatrix}
1 & 0 & 1 \\
0 &1 &0
\end{bmatrix}, C=\begin{bmatrix}
1 & 2\\
0& 6
\end{bmatrix}, \mathbf{v}=\begin{bmatrix}
0 \\
1 \\
0
\end{bmatrix}.\] Then compute and simplify the following expression.
\[\mathbf{v}^{\trans}\left( A^{\trans}-(A-B)^{\trans}\right)C.\]
