Q:

What is the solution to the following system?-4y=8 x+3y-3z=-262x-5y+z=19

Accepted Solution

A:

-4ỿ = 8

Simplify the left side in order to isolate the ỿ!

-4ỿ = 8
+4 +4

Ỿ = 12


× + 3y - 3z = -26

Simplify the left side in order to isolate the ×, ỿ and z!

× + 3y - 3z = -26
÷3 ÷3

× + ỿ - 3z = -8,66 periodic
÷-3 ÷-3

× + ỿ + z = 2,88 periodic


2× - 5ỿ + z = 19

Simplify the left side in order to isolate the ×, ỿ and z!

2× - 5ỿ + z = 19
÷2 ÷2

× - 5ỿ + z = 9,5
÷-5 ÷-5

× + ỿ + z = -1,9
