Wow, mathmandotcom's answer was wrong?
What was your answer?
Instead of complaining, how about learning how to solve the problem.
Use one equation to find one of the variables in terms of the other two and then substitute for that variable in the other two equations.
Then repeat the process with the two remaining equations.

If you don't want to do that, then at least you can try each solution in all three of the equations, and see which one solves all three.
It won't teach you as much, but it's a much better use of time than waiting for one of the other tutors to solve your problem after maligning one of the other tutors.

Did you happen to see that these services are free? That tutors go out of their way during their busy day to help students. Nobody's perfect and we often make mistakes. Usually communicating with the tutors helps to solve any of those issues. I've done that in the past and have no problem with someone calling me out on it. But they usually do it in private and allow me the courtesy of correcting my mistake.

Perhaps an apology might be in order, don't you think?

You don't like my answers either? What don't you like? You don't like it that my responses make you think for yourself? I'm sorry that I refuse to do your work for you. What's the matter -- is doing your own homework cutting into your video game or hanging out at the mall time?

While you are at it, if you are going to take anyone to task about professionalism, you need to go hire an English tutor so that you can at least learn the rudiments of spelling, grammar, and appropriate syntax.

You have proven yourself to be lazy, ignorant, egregiously ungrateful, and thoroughly unworthy of any tutor's time or energy. I applaud Fombitz for taking you to task and I invite the rest of the tutors on this site to join me in utterly ignoring you and other students(?) of your ilk in the future.

My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
