The coefficient matrix of a \(3\times 3\) linear system is \(A\) and the augmented matrix \(A'\). Find \(\mathop{\mathrm{rank}}(A)\) and \(\mathop{\mathrm{rank}}(A')\). \[ A = \begin{pmatrix} -1 & 3 & 2 \\ 0 & 4 & -5 \\ 0 & 0 & 2 \end{pmatrix} \qquad A' = \left(\begin{array}{ccc|c} -1 & 3 & 2 & 5 \\ 0 & 4 & -5 & 10\\ 0 & 0 & 2 & 0 \end{array}\right) \]

Let \(A\) and \(A'\) be the coefficient matrix and the augmented matrix of the following linear system, respectively. Find the ranks of these matrices. \[ \begin{array}{cl} \phantom{ -} 3x + 5y +\phantom{ 2}z =\phantom{ -}10& \\ - 2x - 3y + 2z = -10& \\ \phantom{ - 2}x +\phantom{ 2}y - 5z =\phantom{ -}10& \end{array} \]

Consider a linear system of four equations with four unknowns. The rank of the coefficient matrix \(A\) is \(\mathop{\mathrm{rank}}(A) = 3\). The rank of the augmented matrix \(A'\) is \(\mathop{\mathrm{rank}}(A') = 4\). Identify a true statement on this system.

The augmented matrix of a system of three equations with three unknowns is row equivalent with the following matrix \(A'\). Find the solution of the system. \[ A' = \left(\begin{array}{ccc|c} 1 & 2 & 4 & 0\\ 0 & 2 & 7 & 7\\ 0 & 0 & 7 & 35 \end{array}\right) \]
