Question about solution to matrix equation

In the question above, I am unsure how the very first step of the solution came about. How does fact that R is in reduced row echelon form help deduce the value of d?

          Recall that for the general solution of a linear system is given by



          $$x=x_p+x_h$$



          with




          • $x_p$ particular solution such that $$Ax_p=b$$


          • $x_h$ homogeneous solution such that $$Ax_h=0$$



          ans since R has rank $1$ it is equal to



          $$R=begin{bmatrix}1&0&0\0&0&0\0&0&0end{bmatrix}$$



          What can we conclude now?

            @JavierLim Firstly you need to have clear how the complete solution for a linear system work. Have you clear the mening of the terms for $$x=x_p+c_1x_{h1}+c_2x_{h2}$$

            $x_p$ stands for the particular solution, so $Ax_p = b$ and $c_1x_{h1} + c_2x_{h2}$ stand for vectors in the nullspace of $A$, correct?

            @JavierLim Exactly! Then also for $R$ we have that $Rx_p=d$ and $Rx_h=0$ . Now you need to figure out what $R$ is.
