Cramer's Rule is a method of solving systems of equations using matrices.
General Form for n variables
Cramer's Rule employs the matrix determinant to solve a system of n linear equations in n variables.
We wish to solve the general linear system for the vector . Here, is the coefficient matrix, is a column vector.
Let be the matrix formed by replacing the jth column of with .
Then, Cramer's Rule states that the general solution is
General Solution for 2 Variables
Consider the following system of linear equations in and , with constants :
By Cramer's Rule, the solution to this system is:759287984758948759487592847593475923748592847592nahtuahetivuber
Example in 3 Variables
Here,
Thus,
We calculate the determinants:
Finally, we solve the system:
