Equation 1)  3x + 2y - 5z = 3
Equation 2)  4x - 2y - 3z = -10
Equation 3)  5x - 2y - 2z = -11

Add equation 1 with equation 2.

Equation 4)  7x - 8z = 7

Then subtract equation 3 from equation 2.

Equation 5)  -x -z = 1

Multiply all of equation 5 with 7.

5)  -7x - 7z = 7
4)  7x - 8z = 7

Add equations together.

z = 14

Plug in 14 for z in equation 4.

7x - 8z = 7

7x - 8(14) = 7

7x - 112 = 7

7x = 119

x = 17

Plug in 17 for x in equation 1, and 14 for z.

1)  3x + 2y - 5z = 3

3(17) + 2y - 5(14) = 3

51 + 2y - 70 = 3

2y - 19 = 3

2y = 22

y = 11

So, x = 17, y = 11, and z = 14

~Hope I helped!~

1. The sum of the three consecutive members of the geometric sequence is 13. The proportion of the third and the first member is
aev [14]
If a = first term and r = common ratio we have

a + ar + ar^2 = 13   and ar^2 / a = r^2 = 9

so r = 3

and a + 3a + 9a = 13 
so a = 1

so they are  1,3 and 9 

2.
in geometric series we have

4 , 4r ,4r^2 , 60

Arithmetic;
 4,  4r , 4r + d ,  4r + 2d

so we have the system of equations
4r + 2d = 60
4r^2 = 4r + d
From first equation
2r + d = 30 
so d = 30 - 2r 
Substitute for d in second equation:-
4r^2 - 4r - (30-2r) = 0
4r^2 - 2r - 30 =0

2r^2 - r - 15 = 0
(r - 3)(2r + 5) = 0
r  = 3 or -2.5
r must be positive so its = 3
and d = 30 - 2(3) = 24

and the numbers are 4*3 =  12 , 4*3^2 = 36

first 3  are  4 , 12 and 36  ( in geometric)
and last 3 are 12, 36 and 60  ( in arithmetic)

The 2 numbers we ause are 12 and 36.
