Answer

$\begin{bmatrix} -3&5 &-2 & 0\\ 4 & -1 & -3 &-7 \\ 1 & -6 &3 &12 \end{bmatrix}$.

Work Step by Step

The given system is $\left\{\begin{matrix} -3x &+5y &-2z& = &0 \\ 4x& -y & -3z&= &-7 \\ x&-6y&+3z&=&12 \end{matrix}\right.$ For the augmented matrix First column $=$ coefficients of $x$. Second column $=$ coefficients of $y$ third column $=$ coefficients of $z$ and fourth column $=$ the right-hand side. The augmented matrix is $\begin{bmatrix} -3&5 &-2 & 0\\ 4 & -1 & -3 &-7 \\ 1 & -6 &3 &12 \end{bmatrix}$.
