Augmented Matrix

An augmented matrix is a matrix used to represent a system of linear equations. To form an augmented matrix, each equation must first be written in standard form. Each row corresponds to an equation from the system. The columns represent the coefficients of the variables, while the final column represents the constants from the equations. A vertical line is placed before the constants column to replace the equal signs.
