- Homogeneous System In Exercises 43-46, solve the homogeneous linear system corresponding to the given coefficient matrix. [10010100]arrow_forwardMatrix Representation In Exercises 49 and 50, assume that the matrix is the augmented matrix of a system of linear equations, and a determine the number of equations and the number of variables, and b find the values of k such that the system is consistent. Then assume that the matrix is the coefficient matrix of a homogeneous system of linear equations, and repeat parts a and b. A=[21342k426]arrow_forward
