Question

Use the method of substitution to solve the system. (If there is no solution, enter NO SOLUTION.)
 
x^2	 + 	z^2	 = 	17
4x	 + 	y	 = 	5
y	 + 	z	 = 	5

aum · Answer

x^2 + z^2 = 17    ----- (1)
4x   + y     =   5     ----- (2)
y     + z     =   5     ----- (3)

From (3):  y = 5 - z
Put this in (2):
4x + 5 - z = 5
subtract 5:
4x - z = 0
add z:
4x = z  or  z = 4x.
Put this in (1):
x^2 + (4x)^2 = 17
solve for x
Then solve for z and y.
