: I have to solve the system of equations which are
2x-4y+2z=16
-2x+5y+2z=-34
x-2y+2z=4
I have simplified the 3rd equation to x=2y-2z+4. i then put that into the first equation and had 2(2y-2z=4)-4y+2z=16 to get z equals -4. my problem is finding the x and y variables. when i try to find them my y's and x's always cancel each other out. please help me. :)This question is from textbook HEATH Algebra 2 An itergrated Approach

Question 165920: The probability that San Francisco plays in the next super Bowl is 9 times the probability that they do not play in the Super Bowl. The probability that San Francisco plays in the next super Bowl plus the probability that the don't play in the Super Bowl is 1. What is the probability that San Francisco plays in the next Super Bowl?

I thought you would use the equation: Ax + By = C (9x + By = 1)
9x = 1 - By
9x/9 = 1/9 - By/9
x = -By/9 ?
Not really sure where to begin.
