Answer:  

X + Y = 5.678

X - Y = 9.876

The two numbers: X = 7.777   Y = -2.099

Step-by-step explanation: solve by elimination

X + Y = 5.678

X - Y = 9.876 . Add the two equations so the y cancels. Solve for x

2x = 15.554 .  Divide both sides by 2

X = 7.777    Substitute in the original equations to find Y

7.777 + y = 5.678 . Subtract 7.777 from both sides

Y = - 2.099

check in the second equation:

7.777 -(-2.099) = 9.876

7.777 + 2.099 = 9.876 <u>True</u>

Solve the system of equations by transforming a matrix representing the system of equation into reduced row echelon form.
Gekata [30.6K]

Take the augmented matrix,

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}2&1&-3&-20\\1&2&1&-3\\1&-1&5&19\end{array}\right]

Swap the row 1 and row 2:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\2&1&-3&-20\\1&-1&5&19\end{array}\right]

Add -2(row 1) to row 2, and -1(row 1) to row 3:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\0&-3&-5&-14\\0&-3&4&22\end{array}\right]

Add -1(row 2) to row 3:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\0&-3&-5&-14\\0&0&9&36\end{array}\right]

Multiply through row 3 by 1/9:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\0&-3&-5&-14\\0&0&1&4\end{array}\right]

Add 5(row 3) to row 2:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\0&-3&0&6\\0&0&1&4\end{array}\right]

Multiply through row 2 by -1/3:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\0&1&0&-2\\0&0&1&4\end{array}\right]

Add -2(row 2) and -1(row 3) to row 1:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&0&0&-3\\0&1&0&-2\\0&0&1&4\end{array}\right]

So we have \boxed{x=-3,y=-2,z=4}.
