Ok.
The principle is to eliminate the variables by add or subtract eqs.
OpenStudy (openstudier777):
What should I do first though? I thought you had to make the variables equal so they could be eliminated, however, I have 3 equations.
OpenStudy (3mar):
try to multip. the 1st one by -1 and then sum the three eq together!
OpenStudy (openstudier777):
Ok I did that, and it left me with -2x+0+z=2
OpenStudy (openstudier777):
0 because the y got eliminated

Great!
can you multi. the 2nd by 2 and add it to the 1st?
What you got?
OpenStudy (openstudier777):
What do you mean? Multiply -2x-y+z=-3 by 2x-2y-3z=0? Or multiply it by -2x+2y+3=0?
OpenStudy (3mar):
multiply the 2nd equation by 2
OpenStudy (openstudier777):
OK I got -4x-2y+3z=-6
OpenStudy (3mar):
5 minute please
