-2x + 2y + 3z = 0 2x + 3y + 3z = 5 ----------------add 5y + 6z = 5 2x + 3y + 3z = 5 -2x - y + z = -3 ----------------add 2y + 4z = 2 5y + 6z = 5 -->(2) 2y + 4z = 2 -->(-5) ------------------- 10y + 12z = 10 (result of multiplying by 2) -10y - 20z = -10 (result of multiplying by -5) --------------add -8z = 0 z = 0 now sub 0 in for z 5y + 6z = 5 5y + 6(0) = 5 5y = 5 y = 1 now sub 0 in for z and 1 in for y -2x + 2y + 3z = 0 -2x + 2(1) + 3(0) = 0 -2x + 2 = 0 -2x = -2 x = 1 check... 2x + 3y + 3z = 5 2(1) + 3(1) + 3(0) = 5 2 + 3 = 5 5 = 5 (correct) x = 1, y = 1, and z = 0 any questions ?
