Answer

The linear system can be written as: $\begin{align} & {{a}_{1}}x+{{b}_{1}}y+{{c}_{1}}z={{d}_{1}} \\ & {{a}_{2}}x+{{b}_{2}}y+{{c}_{2}}z={{d}_{2}} \\ & {{a}_{3}}x+{{b}_{3}}y+{{c}_{3}}z={{d}_{3}} \end{align}$

Work Step by Step

A linear equation of the multiplication matrix is given by, $\begin{align} & {{a}_{1}}x+{{b}_{1}}y+{{c}_{1}}z={{d}_{1}} \\ & {{a}_{2}}x+{{b}_{2}}y+{{c}_{2}}z={{d}_{2}} \\ & {{a}_{3}}x+{{b}_{3}}y+{{c}_{3}}z={{d}_{3}} \end{align}$ Thus, a linear system of three-variables of linear equations is $\begin{align} & {{a}_{1}}x+{{b}_{1}}y+{{c}_{1}}z={{d}_{1}} \\ & {{a}_{2}}x+{{b}_{2}}y+{{c}_{2}}z={{d}_{2}} \\ & {{a}_{3}}x+{{b}_{3}}y+{{c}_{3}}z={{d}_{3}} \end{align}$
