What is the solution of

3X−2[-1 5];[7 0]=[17 -13];[-8 0]? Solve for x

1 answer

To solve for X, we can equate the corresponding elements of the left and right matrices.
We have:

3X - 2(-1) = 17
3X - 2(5) = -13
3X - 2(7) = -8
3X - 2(0) = 0

Simplifying these equations, we get:

3X + 2 = 17
3X - 10 = -13
3X - 14 = -8
3X = 0

Continuing to simplify:

3X = 15
3X = -3
3X = 6
3X = 0

Finally, solving for X:

X = 15/3
X = -3/3
X = 6/3
X = 0

Therefore, the solution for X is X = 0.
