I have a system of equations:
w + x + 5y - z = 0
x + y - 2z = 0
x + 2y - 5z = 0
The problem is that when I manipulate to find the Identity matrix ( 1s on the major diagonal ) I don't get a "z" quantity because the matrix is a 3X5. Can you tell me what I need to do when solving a system like this? Thank you.
