Homework Statement
A is a 4 x 5 matrix equal to
[1 4 -1 5 3
3 7 -2 9 6
-2 -3 6 -4 1
1 6 9 8 2]
and b =
[5
40
15

Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I set Ly = b, and solve for y, then I set Ux = y, and when I row-reduce the Augmented [U y] matrix, I always get a 4 x 1 matrix, but x is supposed to be 5 x 1, what am I doing wrong??
