SOLUTION: 2x+y=8 y+3z=5 z+2w=1 5w+3x=9 How would I get the answer for this?

Question 807584: 2x+y=8
y+3z=5
z+2w=1
5w+3x=9
How would I get the answer for this?
Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You have 4 linear equations in 4 variables.
Use substitutions among the 4 equations to get one pair of equations in the same 2 variables, for example, get 2 equations in x and y.
Now plug-in a value of x in one of these pair and find y.
Use that point (x,y) to find w and z that satisfy all 4 equations.
