    Consider the system x+y+z=3,2x+3y+4z=8,x+2y+(a2−5a+9)z=a+3.\begin{aligned}x+y+z&=3,\\2x+3y+4z&=8,\\x+2y+(a^2-5a+9)z&=a+3.\end{aligned} Use Gaussian elimination to classify the system as having a unique solution, no solution or infinitely many solutions for all real values of aa. Where the solution is unique, determine it in terms of aa.
