Hello student,
Please find the answer to your question below
Here det A is not 0 hence rank of A=3
Also if we write augmented matrix C=[A B]
we get c=\begin{bmatrix} 1 &2 &1 &3 \\ 2& 3 &1 &3 \\ 8& 5 &2 &1 \end{bmatrix}
By doing row operations R2=R2-R1,R1=R1-R2,R3=R3-5R2
c=\begin{bmatrix} 0&1 &1 &3 \\ 1& 1 &0 &0 \\ 3& 0 &2 &1 \end{bmatrix}
so Rank of c=3
Hence the given system of equations is consistent with a unique solution
