Solve the following system of equations. 4x – 2y – z = –5 x – 3y + 2z = 3 3x + y – 2z = –5 (0, 1, –3) (0, 1, 3) (0, –1, –3) (0, –1, 3) Solve the following system of equations. 4x – 2y – z = –5 x – 3y + 2z = 3 3x + y – 2z = –5 (0, 1, –3) (0, 1, 3) (0, –1, –3) (0, –1, 3) @Mathematics

Still 0,1,3

You see that you can trial and error here, right?

By substitution we get -10y + 9z = 17 By the options it is clear that 9z is the largest number. As the result is a positive number, we can conclude that 9z should be positive and -10y should be negative. So, z should be positive and y should also be positive to make -10y positive. So the only option is 0,1,3, because it only has y and z positive.

Sorry, " So, z should be positive and y should also be positive to make -10y negative"
