Answer

See below.

Work Step by Step

We know that \[ \left\{ \begin{array}{c} a_1x+b_1y+c_1z=d_1 \\ a_2x+b_2y+c_2z=d_2 \\ a_3x+b_3y+c_3=d_3 \\ \end{array} \right. \] becomes \[ \left[\begin{array}{rrr|r} a_1 & b_1 & c_1 & d_1 \\ a_2 & b_2 & c_2 & d_2 \\ a_3 & b_3 & c_3 & d_3 \\ \end{array} \right] \] Thus the statement is false, the correct augmented matrix is: \[ \left[\begin{array}{rrr|r} 1 & -3 & 0 & 5 \\ 0 & 1 & -2 & 7 \\ 2 & 0 & 1 & 4 \\ \end{array} \right] \]
