Question 822508: The plans for an apartment complex provided for 440 apartments, with each apartment having one, two, or three bedrooms. There were to be 30 more three-bedroom than one-bedroom apartments, and the number of two-bedroom apartments was to be 10 less than 3 times the number of one-bedroom apartments. How many apartments of each type were in the plans?

x + y + z = 440
z = x + 30
y = 3x - 10
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
x + y + z = 440
x - z = -30
3x - y = 10
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:

answer:
x= one-room apts = 84
y= two-room apts = 242
z= three-room apts = 114
