Solution by hand

It is often easiest to solve a set of equations like this by elimination. Here, we find the y-coefficients are multiples of each other, so it is convenient to eliminate y from the equations.

Adding twice the second equation to the first, we have ...

... -7x +7z = 7 ⇒ x -z = -1

Adding twice the first to the third, we have ...

... 10x -7z = -16

The first of these reduced equations can be written to give an expression for x:

... x = z -1

And this can be used in the second of the reduced equations to find z:

... 10(z -1) -7z = -16

... 3z = -6 . . . . . eliminate parentheses, add 10

... z = -2  . . . . . .divide by the coefficient of z

Then x = -2-1 = -3

Substituting into the 2nd of the original equations gives ...

... -5(-3) -2y +6(-2) = 5

... y = (15 -12 -5)/2 = -1

So, the solution by this method is (x, y, z) = (-3, -1, -2).

answer: ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

step-by-step explanation:

choose (5, 1.5) and (-1.5,-3.5)

step-by-step explanation:

5 - 1.5 =3.5

-1.5 - (-3.5) = 2

3.5 + 2 =5.5

hope this !
