Question 241679: hi, i tried solving this system and it just confuses me so much.
1/a + 1/b - 2/c = 9
3/a - 2/b + 1/c + -1
2/a - 1/b + 3/c = 7

i tried modifying it to
a + b - 2c = 9
3a - 2b + c = -1
2a - b + 3c + 7

i tried moving the variables into the numerator and switching the signs after i did that but it doesnt seem to work because i eliminated and substituted and the triplet i got was (65, 119, 29)
so please help me
