Question
help finding the solution
Explanation / Answer
2x + y = -2
or, y = -2 - 2x
x + y - z = -8
or, -z = -8 - x - y
or, z = x + y + 8
Substitute the value of z in third equation
4x + 3y + x + y + 8 = 0
or, 5x + 4y + 8 = 0
or, 5x + 4(-2 - 2x) + 8 = 0
or, 5x - 8 - 8x + 8 = 0
or, -3x = 0
or, x = 0
y = -2 - 2 * 0 = -2
z = 0 - 2 + 8 = 6
So the solution set is (0, -2, 6)
