Tips for Assignment 2
Here is a link to the actual assignment, in case you don't have it handy:
You need to study Lesson 1 (Systems of Linear Equations), Lesson 2 (Row-Reduction and Linear Systems) and Lesson 3 (Matrix Math) from my Linear Algebra & Vector Geometry book to prepare for this assignment.
Don't have my book?  You can download a free sample of my book and audio lectures containing Lessons 1, 2 and 9:
Question 1
Part (a) is very similar to my Lesson 2, question 11.

Part (b) is similar to my Lesson 3, question 4.  You may also find my discussion in Lesson 3, Practice Problem 31 helpful.
Question 2
Very similar to my Lesson 2, question 4.
Question 3
Very similar to my Lesson 2, question 3.
Question 4
Very similar to my Lesson 2, question 1.  Note that, since you are told this is an augmented matrix, you can draw a vertical line separating the last two columns since we must assume the last column is the constant matrix that has been augmented onto the coefficient matrix.
Question 5
Very similar to my Lesson 2, questions 6, 7, and 8.
Question 6
Very similar to my Lesson 2, question 9.
