3x-6y-2z=-17
−6x+4y+5z=13
−3x−4y−3z=22

1) x = -17 +6y + 2z/3

2) x= -13 - 4y - 5z/6

3) x= -22 +4y + 3z/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 3x-6y-2z=-17

3x- 6y -2z- (-6y -2z)= - 17 - ( 6y -2z )

3x=-17+6y+2z

3x/3= -17/3 +6y/3 + 2z/3

x = -17 +6y + 2z/3

2) −6x+4y+5z=13

-6x+4y+5z- ( 4y + 5z )= 13 - ( 4y + 5z )

-6x=13-4y-5z

-6x/-6= 13/-6 - 4y/-6 - 5z/-6

x= -13 - 4y - 5z/6

3) −3x−4y−3z=22

-3x=22+4y+3z

-3x/-3 = 22/-3 + 4y/-3 +3z/-3

x= -22 +4y + 3z/3
