If you have multiple equations with multiple variables, you can either do clever substitutions, or turn it into a matrix on which you can perform linear combinations or multiplications (Gauss elimination)

1  1   1  1
2  1  -1  8
1 -1   1  -5

(note how the above 3 rows represent the 3 equations, just got rid of the variables, plus sign and equals sign)

subtract row1 from row3, that eliminates x and z from row 3.

1  1   1  1
2  1  -1  8
0 -2   0  -6

divide row3 by -2, that will give y a factor of 1

1  1   1  1
2  1  -1  8
0 1   0  3

The last row now says y=3

Y=4x-9 <br> complete the missing value in the solution to the equation <br> (3,__)
kozerog [31]
So we need to plug in our values so now y=4(3)-9 so 4*3 is 12 now we have y=12-9 Subtract 12 and nine to get 3 so y equals 3.
The answer is (3, 3). Hope this helped please look at others answers and check other resources as well
