Solution
Solution Steps
To solve the system of linear equations using the Gauss-Jordan elimination method, we will:
Represent the system of equations as an augmented matrix.
Perform row operations to transform the matrix into reduced row echelon form (RREF).
Interpret the resulting matrix to find the values of \(x\) and \(y\).
Step 1: Represent the System of Equations as an Augmented Matrix
We start by representing the given system of linear equations as an augmented matrix:
\[
\begin{bmatrix}
2 & 3 & -5 \\
1 & 3 & -7 \\
1 & -1 & 3
\end{bmatrix}
\]
Step 2: Apply Gauss-Jordan Elimination
We perform row operations to transform the augmented matrix into its reduced row echelon form (RREF). The resulting matrix is:
\[
\begin{bmatrix}
1 & 0 & 0 \\
0 & 1 & 0 \\
0 & 0 & 1
\end{bmatrix}
\]
Step 3: Interpret the RREF Matrix
The RREF matrix indicates that:
\[
\begin{cases}
x = 0 \\
y = 0
\end{cases}
\]
Final Answer
The solution to the system of linear equations is:
\[
\boxed{(x, y) = (0, 0)}
\]
