the method i would use is elimination, so i would try to cancel out y, so i would use both the first equation and the third one then solve to get z=2x-4z=0 then i would plug z back into the second equation so you get 2x-3y-4(1/2x+0=-9 2x-3y-2x=-9 combine like terms you get -3y=-9 divide by three on both sides you get y=3 plug that back into the first equation to get x+z=6 then get x by itself plug that back into the third equation to get z=2 then to get x plug y and z into the second equation you get x=4 Solution you get (4,3,2)
