Gauss elimination method: (1) Consider the system of equations A.

X = B
(2) Write augmented matrix [A B ]
(3) Reduce augmented matrix [A B ] into upper triangle
matrix by applying suitable elementary row operations
This method is illustrated by taking system of three equations in three unknowns
a11 x + a12 y + a13 z = b1
a 21 x + a 22 y + a 23 z = b2 ………………………….(I)
a 31 x + a 32 y + a33 z = b3

The matrix form of above system is A.X = B where

A = a 21 a 22 a 23  , X =  y  , B = b2 
a 31 a 32 a 33   z  b3 
a11 a12 a13 b 

Now the augmented matrix of A.X = B is given by [A B ] = a 21 a 22 a 23 b2 
