Solution

The given system of equation can be expressed can be represented in matrix form as AX = B, where
A=∣ ∣112345213∣ ∣X=∣ ∣xyz∣ ∣,B=∣ ∣7512∣ ∣
Now |A|=∣ ∣112345213∣ ∣=1(125)+1(9+10)+2(38)7+1922=40
Hence A1 exist and system have unique solution.
C11=(1)1+14513=125=7
C12=(1)1+23523=(9+10)=19
C13=(1)1+33421=(38)=11
C21=(1)2+11213=(3+2)=1
C22=(1)2+21223=34=1
C23=(1)2+31121=(1+2)=1
C31=(1)3+11245=58=3
C32=(1)3+21235=4+3=7
C33=(1)3+31134=4+3=7
AdjA=∣ ∣7119111113117∣ ∣T=∣ ∣713191111117∣ ∣
A1=1|A|adjA=14∣ ∣713191111117∣ ∣
AX=BX=A1B
Therefore, xyz=14∣ ∣713191111117∣ ∣∣ ∣7512∣ ∣
=1449536133+5+13277+5+84
=148412
∣ ∣xyz∣ ∣=∣ ∣213∣ ∣
Equating the corresponding elements we get
x = 2, y = 1, z = 3.
