Solve the following system of equations 2x - 3y + z = -1 2x - 2y - 2z = -8 x + 5y - 3z = 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Would it be (-1,2,8)?

hero (hero):

Did you actually solve it to get that or are you just guessing?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

guessing lol. I'm doing my exams and it's timed and I'm getting low on time here

hero (hero):

No, you can't guess. Just use wolfram alpha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Guessing would work, but need to make some smart guess to though.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If he has an exam, he has to understand and wolfram alpha doesn't help too much.

hero (hero):

x = 1 y = 2 z = 3

hero (hero):

You can use wolfram alpha to understand. You just have to know how to use it

Wolfram would help you see if you are doing it right or not. It is a good tool to assist you while you are learning system of equation concepts.

2x = 3y - z - 1 2x = 2y + 2z - 8 2x = -10y + 6z + 4 (multiply by 2 for the whole eqn) So, 3y - z - 1 = 2y + 2z - 8 = -10y + 6z + 4 go on doing the simultaneos eqn by any method u like and i guess u'll get the answer right. Pls do tell me if there's a btr method, I'm juz finished Form 5 (or O lvl for other countries) and thts what i guessed i've learned to solve this kind of Q.
