Question
QUESTION: find the solution given the following:
y-6z=-2x
x-y+z=-10
x+y-z=0
ANSWER: y - 6z = -2x
x - y + z = -10
x + y - z = 0
2x = -10
x = -5
y - 6z = -2(-5)
y - 6z = 10
y = 6z + 10
-5 - 6z - 10 + z = -10
-5z = 5
z = -1
-5 + y + 1 = 0
y = 4
x = -5
y = 4
z = -1

QUESTION: 2x+y=(1/2)z
2y=-2(x+z)
3x-y+z=16
2x + y = (1/2)z
2y = -2(x + z)
3x - y + z = 16
2y = -2(x + z)
y = -(x + z)
y = -x - z
2x - x - z = (1/2)z
x = (3/2)z
y = (-3/2)z - z
y = (-5/2)z
3(3/2)z - (-5/2)z + z = 16
(9/2)z + (5/2)z + z = 16
9z + 5z + 2z = 32
16z = 32
z = 2
x = 3
y = -5
z = 2
