3x - y + z = 5 . . . (1)
x + 3y + 3z = -6 . . . (2)
x + 4y - 2z = 12 . . . (3)

From (2), x = -6 - 3y - 3z . . . (4)
Substituting for x in (1) and (3) gives
3(-6 - 3y - 3z) - y + z = 5 => -18 - 9y - 9z - y + z = 5 => -10y - 8z = 23 . .  (5)
-6 - 3y - 3z + 4y - 2z = 12 => y - 5z = 18 . . . (6)

(6) x 10 => 10y - 50z = 180 . . . (7)
(5) + (7) => -58z = 203
z = 203/-58 = -3.5

From (6), y - 5(-3.5) = 18 => y = 18 - 17.5 = 0.5
From (4), x = -6 - 3(0.5) - 3(-3.5) = -6 - 1.5 + 10.5 = 3

x = 3, y = 0.5, z = -3.5

Huilan is 15 years younger than Thomas. The sum of their ages is 33 . What is Thomas's age?
Sphinxa [80]

h = t - 15

h + t = 33

Because we have a value of h, we can plug it into the second equation to solve for t.

t - 15 + t = 33

Add 15 to both sides.

t + t = 48

Combine like terms.

2t = 48

Divide both sides by 2.

t = 24

<h3>Thomas's age is 24.</h3>
