Find the point x1 ,x2 that lies on the line x1 + 4x2 = 13 and on the line x1 − x2 = 3. See the x2
figure.

x1

To find the intersection​point, first write a system of​equations, then write an augmented matrix that represents this system of
equations. Use elementary row operations to find a system of equations that are easier to solve.

The point x1 ,x2 that lies on the line x1 + 4x2 = 13 and on the line x1 − x2 = 3 is the same as the solution of the following
system of linear equations.

x1 + 4x2 = 13x1
x1 − 4x2 = 3x1

Set up the augmented matrix of this system.

1 4 13
1 −1 3

Now use elementary row operations on the augmented matrix to replace the system with an equivalent system that is easier to
solve. The elementary row operations are shown below.

1.​(Replacement) Replace one row by the sum of itself and a multiple of another row.
2.​(Interchange) Interchange two rows.
3.​(Scaling) Multiply all entries in a row by a nonzero constant.

Keep the 1 in the first column of row 1. Then use a row operation to change the entry in the first column of row 2 to a 0. To do​
this, add − 1 times row 1 to row 2.

Multiply each entry in row 1 by − 1 and add it to the corresponding entry in row 2.

Keep the 1 in the second column of row 2. Then use a row operation to change the entry in the second column of row 1 to a 0.
To do​this, add − 4 times row 2 to row 1.

Multiply each entry in row 2 by − 4 and add it to the corresponding entry in row 1.

This matrix is equivalent to the following system of linear equations.

x1 + x2 = 5x1
x2 = 2x1

This means the point x1 ,x2 that lies on the line x1 + 4x2 = 13 and on the line x1 − x2 = 3 is ​(5​,2​).

To verify that ​(5​,2​) is a​solution, substitute these values into the left side of the original system and compute.

​(5​) + 4​(2​) = 5 + 8 = 13
​(5) − ​(2​) = 3

The results agree with the right side of the original​system, so ​(5​,2​) is the point that lies on the line x1 + 4x2 = 13 and on the line
x1 − x2 = 3.
