someone plz help me solve complete the ordered triple 4a+3b+c=-9 a-3b+2c=27 11a-2b+3c=28 step by step so i can learn how to do on my own i keep getting the wrong answer

subtract twice equation 1 from equation 2 and thrice equation 1 from equation 3. that should eliminate c and you will have two new equations with just a and b. solve for a and b and substitute their values in one of the original equations to get c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your suppose to add them not subtract i thought

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no you can manipulate them any way you like. subtraction is simply negative adding. 4-2 is 4+(-2). Think about it this way then add negative twiceequation 1 from equation 2 and negative thrice equation 1 from equation 3. that should eliminate c and you will have two new equations with just a and b. solve for a and b and substitute their values in one of the original equations to get c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Add....5a = 3c =18 I tye wrong: 5a+3c=18 I told you I'm not good tye you check I may tye wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a=0 b=-5 c=6
