Question 874757: The sum of three numbers is 13. The sum of twice the first number, 4times the second number, and 5times the third number is 48. The difference between 5 times the first number and the second number is 7. Find the three numbers Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x + y + z = 13 (ADD (times -5) 2x + 4y + 5z = 48
-3x - y = -17 (ADD (times -1) 5x - y = 7
8x = 24, x = 3 and y = 8 z = 2
(3, 8, 2) the solution for this System
