Consider a system of three linear equations in three variables represented in matrix form as AX=BAX = B, where AA is a 3×33\times 3 matrix and BB is a 3×13\times 1 column matrix. (i) State the conditions on ∣A∣|A| and (adj⁡A)B(\operatorname{adj} A)B for the system to have (a) a unique solution, (b) no solution, and (c) infinitely many solutions. (ii) Give a brief justification for each of the three conditions stated in part (i).
