Answer:

  • The solution is (4, - 1, 3)

---------------------------------------

Given system

  • x + y + z = 6
  • x + y = z
  • 1 + z = x

Solution

Substitute the second equation into first one, find z:

  • z + z = 6 ⇒ 2z = 6 ⇒ z = 3

Substitute the value of z into third equation and find x:

  • 1 + 3 = x ⇒ x = 4

Substitute values of x and z into second equation and find y:

  • 4 + y = 3 ⇒ y = 3 - 4 ⇒ y = - 1
