-3x + y - 2z = 10 |* -1
3x - y +2z = -10
5x -2y -2z = 12
--------------------------- I add these equations term by term
8x - 3y = 2
-3x + y - 2z =10 ⇒ -3x + y - 2z =10
x -y +z = 23 | *2 2x - 2y + 2z = 46
----------------------------- I add these eq.
-x -y = 56
8x - 3y = 2
-x -y = 56
this is the system after i reduce it ( it has only two variables x and y)
677/280 that is the answer
You subtract because it's just adding a negative which cancels out the adding and makes it a subtraction problem.
Step 1: Cross-multiply.
(x+3)^1/2=(3x+7)^1/4
Step 2: Subtract 6x from both sides.
4x+12−6x=6x+14−6x
−2x+12=14
Step 3: Subtract 12 from both sides.
−2x+12−12=14−12
−2x=2
Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.
−2x/−2=2/−2
Answer:
x=−1
