Apply Gaussian Elimination to Systems Without Unique Solutions
Use Gaussian $$\begin{array} { r } x + y + z + w = 8 \\3 x + 2 y + z + 4 w = 21 \\4 x + 4 y + 5 z + 8 w = 30 \\2 x + 3 y + 6 z + 9 w = 15\end{array}$$

Multiple Choice

Apply Gaussian Elimination to Systems Without Unique Solutions
Use Gaussian elimination to find the complete solution to the system of equations, or state that none exists.
- $$\begin{array} { r } x + y + z + w = 8 \\3 x + 2 y + z + 4 w = 21 \\4 x + 4 y + 5 z + 8 w = 30 \\2 x + 3 y + 6 z + 9 w = 15\end{array}$$
