Solve the following system of equations. 4x + 7y – 2z = 0 3x – 5y + 3z = 9 3x + 6y – z = 1 Choices: A.(1, 0, 2) B.(–1, 0, –2) C. (1, 0, –2) D.(–1, 0, 2) Is the correct answer D?
Not quite notice when we substitute those values into the 2nd equation it does not equal 9
For these questions, as multiple choice, it can sometimes be faster just to check the answers in the equations and see which one provides true statements every time.
so is it B?
no
just do what simple said see which choice holds for the system
plug in
ok
what happens when you check A?
do each of the equations hold true for (x,y,z)?
(x=1,y=0,z=2)*?
all i did was subract the second and and third equation
and i got -11y+4z=8
ok it is easier if you just plug in those values and see if each of the equations hold
oh so the naswer is A right?
answer*
right becasuse 4(1)+7(0)-2(2)=4-4=0 both sides = 3(1)-5(0)+3(2)=3+6=9 both sides = 3(1)+6(0)-2=3-2=1 both sides =
ooooh i get it thank you so much for your help i really appreciate it
good work. nice finish too myininaya
thank both so much
