What is the solution of the system of equations?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you know how to use matrices? It makes solving such a problem extremely easy.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you have a graphing calculator?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no i can use online ones tho im home schooled

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It would help though. If you plan on taking future math classes. Okay. So it depends on how you want to solve it. I can show you how to solve it using matrices. Which is probably as easy adding.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can solve it using elimination, substitution, or matrices. Matrices is normally studies later on in the course. Please let me know which one you prefer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

matrices

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you know what row reduction echelon form is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Here, let me just give you the answers, x=4, y=-1, z=-3. Then let me explain how to do this problem if you wish so.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I would prefer straight up elimination.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please explain cuz im lost

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What math class are you in? I don't want to get ahead of what you have studied, which could be why matrices might seem too complicated and new for you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There are three ways to solve this question: Matricies Substitution Elimination Which one have you learned?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

none

OpenStudy (anonymous):

beacuse the techer wass supposed taught matrices but the leesson was skipped cuz of hurrican sandy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i just need someone to explain it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and im in algebra 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ohh. I can't explain matrices sorry :( . I hope you are okay from Hurricane Sandy btw!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah im fine can u explain substitution or elimination i can do the two variables but not the three variables
