DF Unit 6 Algebra

Your discussion response for this unit will consist of two parts.
First, create 3 equations of the form ax+by+cz=dax+by+cz=d, where a, b, c, and d are constants
(integers between – 5 and 5). For example, x+2y−z=−1x+2y−z=−1. Perform row operations on your
system to obtain a row-echelon form and the solution.
Go to the 3D calculator website GeoGebra: www.geogebra.org/3d?lang=pt and enter each of the
equations.
After you have completed this first task, choose one of the following to complete your discussion
post.
1. Reflect on what the graphs are suggesting for one equation, two equations, and three equations,
and describe your observations. Think about the equation as a function ff of x and y, for
example, x+2y+1=zx+2y+1=z in the example above. Geogebra automatically interprets this way, that
is, like z=f(x,y)=x+2y+1z=f(x,y)=x+2y+1, it isolates z in the equation.
2. What did the graphs show when you entered the second equation?
3. Give a simple description of the system
x=0
y=0
z=0
x = 0 can be seen as the constant function x=g(y,z)=0y+0z=0x=g(y,z)=0y+0z=0. Of course, you can
use GeoGebra to “observe” the system.
4. Give an example with 2 equations as simple as possible with 3 variables (at least 1 being non-
linear; keeping z to the one power on both equations) and describe the potential of GeoGebra to
study nonlinear systems.
Your Discussion should be a minimum of 250 words in length and not more than 750 words.

I create 3 equations:

x + 3y - 2z = 1
x + y + 2z = 2
-x – 2y + z = 0

This is 3 linear equations with 3 variables x, y, z.

From the equations above, we have augmented matrix:


R1 - - 1 3 -2 | 1
R2 - - 1 1 2 | 2
R3 - - -1 -2 1 | 0
R1 + R3 =R3

R1 - - 1 3 -2 | 1
R2 - - 1 1 2 | 2
R3 - - 0 -1 1 | 1

-1 R1 + R2 = R2

R1 - - 1 3 -2 | -1
R2 - - 0 -2 4 | 2
R3 - - 0 0 2 | 2

-1R2 = R2

R1 - - 1 3 -2 | -1
R2 - - 0 2 -4 | -2
R3 - - 0 0 2 | 2

According to Abramson (2017, p. 936), this is row-echelon form.

1 3 -2
0 2 -4
0 0 2

The final equations are

x + 3y -2z = -1
2y-4z = -2
z= 2

Subtitute ( z = 2) in to (2y – 4z = -2)

2y-4z = -2
2y – 4(2) = -2
2y – 8 = -2
2y = 6
y=3

Subtitute z = 2 and y = 3 into x + 3y -2z = 2

x + 3y -2z = 2
x + 3(3) – 2(2) = 1
x + 9 –4 = 1
x+5 =1
x = -4

So, x, y and z = (-4, 3, 2)

Subtitute all values in 3 equations

x + 3y - 2z = 1
-4 + 9 – 4 = 1
1=1

x + y + 2z = 3
-4 + 3 +4 = 3
3=3

-x – 2y + z = 0
4–6+2 =0
0=0

We can see that Gaussian elimination system are provided, where diagonal number is 2 and the
bottom of diagonal is 3.

The point (-4, 3, 2) are the intersection among linear equations.

I choose number four.

a. x2 + 2y + 3z = 4;
2x +2y + 2z = 0

Graph

b. x3 -y + 2z = 1
x + y + z = -1

Graph

As we can see on the graph, the non-linear function can get the linear cut points.
