In Problems 37–72, solve each system of equations using matrices (row operations). If the system has no solution, say that it is inconsistent.

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}\begin{array}{c}2x+3y-z=3\\ x-y-z=0\end{array}\\ \begin{array}{c}-x+y+z=0\\ x+y+5z=5\end{array}\end{array}\right.$

The given system of equations is

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}\begin{array}{c}2x+3y-z=3\\ x-y-z=0\end{array}\\ \begin{array}{c}-x+y+z=0\\ x+y+5z=5\end{array}\end{array}\right.$

Row operation :

1. Interchange any two rows.
2. Replace a row by a nonzero multiple of that row.
3. Replace a row by the sum of that row and a constant nonzero multiple of some other row.

The augmented matrix of the system is:

$\left[\begin{array}{cc}\begin{array}{c}\begin{array}{ccc}2& 3& -1\\ 1& 1& -1\end{array}\\ \begin{array}{ccc}-1& 1& 1\\ 1& 1& 3\end{array}\end{array}& \begin{array}{c}\begin{array}{c}\begin{array}{c}3\\ 0\end{array}\\ \begin{array}{c}0\\ 5\end{array}\end{array}\end{array}\end{array}\right]$

This matrix is in row echelon form.

Use the obtained matrix to write the system of equations.

$$\begin{gathered} x=3...\left(1\right) \\ y=0...\left(2\right) \\ z=3...\left(3\right) \end{gathered}$$

The bottom row of the obtained matrix is equivalent to the equation

$0·x+0·y+0·z=-7$

which has no solution.

Thus, the original system is inconsistent.

The given system of equations is inconsistent.
