1 ) [ 9 pts ] You have to solve an electrical circuit using Kirchhoff's law giving you 3 equations involving 3
unknowns: i1, i2 and i3. You use MatLab to solve your 3 by 3 system… Write in each blank which one of the
words would fill-in the blanks of this paragraph. Yes, only one answer is correct for each blank line, a word can
be used more than once, and there are more words than blanks.
You should first type in the matrix ____________ the constants ( the right-side of the ‘=’ in Ax=C ) using
_______ to indicate the end of __________. Based on the ___________ of the matrix, you will know if either
the system has a unique solution when the ________ equals ____________or it is a case where it has none or
infinity of solutions. In the latter case you need to enter the matrix ________ the constants. Then, to know if
your system has no solution or rather an infinite amount of solutions, you use the _____________ function of
MatLab with this new matrix. If you see a row with all 0 coefficients equal to __________, then you have no
solutions, otherwise, you have an infinity of solutions!
