Parametric equations and augmented coefficient matrices

[boriskov]

hi,

I'm currently really struggling with an assignment that I've been tasked with.

It's mostly theoretical proof questions, which I find difficult. Actual questions I'm fine with.

I have done the first question without issue, as well as question 2a), but 2b) onwards I'm quite lost.

Q3 seems a mystery.

Any help with this would be great, I'd love to understand this.

Thanks

Hello and welcome to MHB, boriskov! :D

Upon reading the pdf file you have attached, it appears that these problems are part of a graded assignment. Our policy here is:

"not knowingly to help with questions in such assignments. If you present a question in such a way as to suggest that it falls in this category, a moderator will close the thread and explain why. The original poster can always PM the moderator to discuss the situation, but if the moderator is unconvinced, the thread will stay closed."

If your professor allows for you to seek outside help, then please send me a private message to explain his/her policy.

Also, when posting problems with multiple parts, it is best to post each problem in a separate thread. This way a thread does not potentially become convoluted and difficult to follow.

The title of a thread should be a brief and accurate description of what your question is about. The thread title should be at least one level more specific than the forum in which you post. Thus, I have retitled this thread.

I have also attached images of the relevant portions of the attached file, so that our helpers do not have to follow a link to a file.

These policies are in place to help make MHB organized and easier for our helpers to provide help.
