Consistent and inconsistent equations

In mathematics and particularly in algebra, a linear or nonlinear system of equations is called consistent if there is at least one set of values for the unknowns that satisfies each equation in the system—that is, when substituted into each of the equations, they make each equation hold true as an identity. In contrast, a linear or non linear equation system is called inconsistent if there is no set of values for the unknowns that satisfies all of the equations. If a system of equations is inconsistent, then it is possible to manipulate and combine the equations in such a way as to obtain contradictory information, such as 2 = 1, or x3 + y3 = 5 and x3 + y3 = 6 (which implies 5 = 6). Both types of equation system, consistent and inconsistent, can be any of overdetermined (having more equations than unknowns), underdetermined (having fewer equations than unknowns), or exactly determined.

Consistency of a System of Linear Equations

Linear Algebra: Determine whether the following systems of linear equations are consistent: (a) x -3y +2z + 2w = 1, 2x - 2z = 3, 4x - 6y +2z + 4w = 6; (b) x-3y+2z+2w=1, 2x-2z = 3, 4x - 6y - 2z + 4w = 5.

Systems and Pivots

In this video, I use prove two very classical results in the study of systems of equations: First, that Ax = b is always consistent iff A has a pivot in every row, and second that Ax = b is inconsistent iff the last column of the augmented matrix is a pivot column. For this, I use the rank
