a)

Augmented matrix:

b)

Augmented matrix:

c)

Augmented matrix:

d)

Augmented matrix:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the augmented matrix, you have to take the numeric values of each variable and make a matrix with them. For example, in the linear system a) you can make a matrix out of the numeric values accompanying x_1 and x_2, this matrix will be:  

Then you have to make a vector with the constants in the linear equations, for the case of system a) the vector will be:  

To construct the augmented matrix, you append those matrices together and create a new one:
