Given the following equations , solve using gauss method " Reduced Row Echelon Form ": x1 + 2x2 + 3x3 + 2x4 = -1 -x1 -2x2 -2x3 + x4 = 2 2x1 + 4x2 + 8x3 + 12x4 = 4 this is my solution basically , the steps are in order!: R2 + R1 R3 + (-2)R1 R3 + (-2)R2 R1 + R2(-3) 1/2 R3 R2 + (-3)R3 R1 + R3(7) And finally got: 1 2 0 0 10 0 0 1 0 -5 0 0 0 1 2 --- from what I understand the bottom might not be all 0s , unless there isn't a leading 1 is my solution correct ? and should every column get a leading one ? or what ?
