Once you plug in -18 as x you divide it with 6 and the answer of that is -3 then you add 17 and -3 and your output will be 14!
I'd suggest using "elimination by addition and subtraction" here, altho' there are other approaches (such as matrices, substitution, etc.).
Note that if you add the 3rd equation to the second, the x terms cancel out, and you are left with the system
- y + 3z = -2
y + z = -2
-----------------
4z = -4, so z = -1.
Next, multiply the 3rd equation by 2: You'll get -2x + 2y + 2z = -2.
Add this result to the first equation. The 2x terms will cancel, leaving you with the system
2y + 2z = -2
y + z = 4
This would be a good time to subst. -1 for z. We then get:
-2y - 2 = -2. Then y must be 0. y = 0.
Now subst. -1 for z and 0 for y in any of the original equations.
For example, x - (-1) + 3(0) = -2, so x + 1 = -2, or x = -3.
Then a tentative solution is (-3, -1, 0).
It's very important that you ensure that this satisfies all 3 of the originale quations.

Express all possible lengths for this scrap as a compound inequality will be L ≤ 24.
<h3>What is inequality?</h3>
Inequality is defined as an equation that does not contain an equal sign. Inequality is a term that describes a statement's relative size and can be used to compare these two claims.
To repair a leak a plumber needs a pipe that is within 3/4 of an inch of 32 inches.
⇒ 3/4 x 32
⇒ 24
He already has a 48-inch pipe.
Let the variable L represents the length of the extra (scrap) that is removed from the 48-inch pipe will be
Then express all possible lengths for this scrap as a compound inequality will be
L + 24 ≤ 48
L ≤ 48 - 24
L ≤ 24

Step 1:
Cost of large cup = $5
Step 2:
Number of large David orders = 10 cups
A good plan to find the amount Jon spent is to find the number of large cups Jon orders from the number of large cups David orders.
Jon order 4 fewer large cups
Therefore,
Jon order = 6 cups
Step 3:
A good plan to find the amount Jon spent is to find the number of large cups Jon orders from the number of large cups David orders.
The amount Jon spent on coffee = 6 x $5 = $30
