Solve the following System of Equations

5x+4y-z=1

2x-2y+z=1

-x-y+z=2

x = 0, y = 1, z = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{5 x + 4 y - z = 1 | (equation 1)

2 x - 2 y + z = 1 | (equation 2)

-x - y + z = 2 | (equation 3)

Subtract 2/5 * (equation 1) from equation 2:

{5 x + 4 y - z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x - (18 y) / 5 + (7 z) / 5 = 3/5 | (equation 2)

-x - y + z = 2 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 2 by 5:

{5 x + 4 y - z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x - 18 y + 7 z = 3 | (equation 2)

-x - y + z = 2 | (equation 3)

Add 1/5 * (equation 1) to equation 3:

{5 x + 4 y - z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x - 18 y + 7 z = 3 | (equation 2)

0 x - y/5 + (4 z) / 5 = 11/5 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 3 by 5:

{5 x + 4 y - z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x - 18 y + 7 z = 3 | (equation 2)

0 x - y + 4 z = 11 | (equation 3)

Subtract 1/18 * (equation 2) from equation 3:

{5 x + 4 y - z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x - 18 y + 7 z = 3 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y + (65 z) / 18 = 65/6 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 3 by 18/65:

{5 x + 4 y - z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x - 18 y + 7 z = 3 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 3 | (equation 3)

Subtract 7 * (equation 3) from equation 2:

{5 x + 4 y - z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x - 18 y+0 z = - 18 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 3 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 2 by - 18:

{5 x + 4 y - z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 3 | (equation 3)

Subtract 4 * (equation 2) from equation 1:

{5 x + 0 y - z = - 3 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 3 | (equation 3)

Add equation 3 to equation 1:

{5 x+0 y+0 z = 0 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 3 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 1 by 5:

{x+0 y+0 z = 0 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 3 | (equation 3)

Collect results:

Answer: {x = 0, y = 1, z = 3
