-3x+3y–3z=6
\n" ); document.write( "-x+y+z= -10
\n" ); document.write( "-x–3y–z=-14
\n" ); document.write( "solve a system of equations in 3 variables using elimination
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Simplify the top equation to get:
\n" ); document.write( "x - y + z = -2
\n" ); document.write( "-x + y + z = -10
\n" ); document.write( "-x -3y - z = -14
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Add the 1st row to the 2nd
\n" ); document.write( "Add the 1st row to the 3rd
\n" ); document.write( "x - y + z = -2
\n" ); document.write( "0 + 0 +2z = -12
\n" ); document.write( "0 -4y + 0 = -16
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Solve the 2nd row for \"z\":
\n" ); document.write( "Solve the 3rd row for \"y\":
\n" ); document.write( "z = -6
\n" ); document.write( "y = 4
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Solve the 1st row for \"x\"::
\n" ); document.write( "x -4 -6 = -2
\n" ); document.write( "x = 8
