Question 183002This question is from textbook Intermediate Algebra
: Hello,
I need help Please with the following problem.
Solve the system:
2x + y + Z + w = 3
x - 2y - z + w = -3
x - y - 2z - w = -3
x + y - z + 2w = 4
I have tried adding 1 & 2 getting 3x - y + 2w = 0
Then taking 1 & multiplying it by 2 and then adding it to 3 and getting 5x+y=w=3
Then taking 4 & mutliplying it by -2 then adding it to 1 getting 3x+2y+3w=1
Then I am stuck because I don't know what to do next. I know I have to get rid of the same 2 variables. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jen
