Question: 1 5 x 1 - 4 5 x 2 4 5 - p 1 x 3 = 0 4 5 x 1 1 5 x

15x1-45x245-p1x3=0
45x115x2-15-p2x3=0
I-p1x1-p2x2=0
Hint 1: Use the eLecture alternative approach
Hint 2: While I included the values for x3, you don't need to explicitly check those. In other words, if your x1 and x2 is correct, the x3 option will also be correct. In a few weeks, we'll see why we don't care about x3 as much as x1 and x2.
a.x1=I5p1;x2=4I5p2;x3=15(I5p1)-45(4I5p2)45p1=45(I5p1)15(4I5p2)-15p2
b.x1=I5p2;x2=4I5p1;x3=15(I5p2)-45(4I5p1)45p2=45(I5p2)15(4I5p1)-15p1
c.x1=4I5p1;x2=I5p2;x3=15(4I5p1)-45(I5p2)45p1=45(4I5p1)15(I5p2)-15p2
d. No solution exists
1 5 x 1 - 4 5 x 2 4 5 - p 1 x 3 = 0 4 5 x 1 1 5 x
