Linear Algebra: Matrix reduction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How would i place this within a matrix? \[3x^3 - \ln y = 77\] \[2x^3 + lny^3 = 66\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Was thinking of first getting rid of the natural logs but not sure since this is a nonlinear system

OpenStudy (loser66):

no need to worry, just consider x^3 and lny as variable. After solving, take it back to calculate. ln y^3 = 3lny that's it.

OpenStudy (loser66):

\[\left[\begin{matrix}3&-1&77\\2&3&66\end{matrix}\right]\] dat sit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not sure i understand yet so i regard ln y as just a -1?

OpenStudy (loser66):

OOOOOOOOOOOk I go slower!! let x^3 = u lny = v

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait i think i get it now, so we just take the coefficient of the Ln y and then plug it back into our answers?

OpenStudy (loser66):

and you have lny^3 = 3 lny, so that lny^3 = 3v ok?

OpenStudy (loser66):

yes, you are correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah i get it now so at the end i plug the ln y back in

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you very much!

OpenStudy (loser66):

ok
