Systems of Equations in Three Variables

:Ex5 3 2 2x y z 2 5x y z

4 2 16x y z

A solution to a system of equations in three variables is the ordered triple , , that satisfies all three equations.x y z

We can solve a system of equations in three variables using an extensionof the elimination method...

1) Pick two equations and "eliminate" one of the variables.2) Pick a different two equations and "eliminate" the same variable.

Now you have two equations with two variables.3) Solve this new system of two equations for both variables using prior

techniques.4) Substitute the values found into one of the original equations to solve

for the third variable.
