2x- y+ z=1 x+2y+3z=8 3x+ y-4z=1 There are many ways to solve this. Since you didn't state a method, we're not just going to guess one particular way. If you want to see it solved, specify which method you are studying, tell me in the thank-you note form below, and I'll get back to you. The solution is x=1, y=2, z=1 Edwin
