System Equation Solver

Solve simultaneous linear equations in 2 or 3 variables instantly using matrix determinant methods.

Input Matrix [A | B]

x
y
=
x
y
=

Current Equation Representation:

1x + 1y = 5
1x + -1y = 1

Solution Output

x value3.00
y value2.00

Mathematical Proof (Cramer's Rule)

1

Determinant (D) = (1 * -1) - (1 * 1) = -2.00

2

Dx = (5 * -1) - (1 * 1) = -6.00

3

Dy = (1 * 1) - (5 * 1) = -4.00

4

x = Dx / D = 3.00

5

y = Dy / D = 2.00

How it works

This solver uses **Cramer's Rule**, a method for solving systems of linear equations using determinants. It calculates the main determinant of the coefficient matrix and then substitute each column with the constant vector to find variable-specific determinants.

Constraints

A system has a unique solution if and only if the determinant is **non-zero**. If the determinant is zero, the system is either inconsistent (no solution) or dependent (infinitely many solutions).
