No way do I get this problem.... If you were to use the substitution method to solve the following system, choose the new system of equations that would result if x was isolated in the second equation.3x + y + 2z = 1x + 2y - z = -83x - y - 3z = 18 (1 points) Answer 7y - z = 255y - 6z = 42 -5x - 5z = -106x - z = 19 7x + 3z = -100x - 5z = 19 -5y + 5z = 25-7y = 42

From my paper I got B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm assuming I'm wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Go figure

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

if we isolate x in 2nd equation, the resulting equations shouldnt have x anymore

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

so the middle two options are gone

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

its either A or D

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

on cursory check, its D

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

seee if u get the same :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

holy sh** I am actually doing this right... I eliminated both the middle options

OpenStudy (anonymous):

saw that it'd be -5, so that threw me to option D

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you're a good helper...seriously... wow thank you

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

same reasoning i used as urs.. good work !
