Review – Gaussian and Gauss-Jordan Elimination

Gaussian Elimination involves reducing a matrix to row-echelon form using the elementary row operations of matrices.
Gauss-Jordan Elimination involves reducing a matrix to reduced row-echelon form using the elementary row operations of matrices.
Either of these methods can be used to solve a system of equations.

Here is an example of solving the following system of equations using the Gauss-Jordan Elimination method:

2x y + 3z = 24
2y z = 14
7x 5y = 6
