solve the following systems of equations xy 6 5x 5z 40 5y z
solve the following systems of equations
x-y = 6
5x -5z= 40
5y+ z= 10
Solution
given x-y=6
5x -5z =40=> x-z =8
5y +z =10
add x-z =8,5y +z =10
x-z +5y +z =8+10
x+5y=18
solve x+5y =18, x-y =6
x+5y -x+y =18-6
6y =12
y=2
solve x-y =6 , y =2
x-2=6
x=8
solve x=8 , x-z=8
8-z =8
z=0
solution is x =8 ,y=2,z=0
