What is the solution to this system of equations? x + 3y - z = 6
4x - 2y + 2z= -10
6x + z= -12

(an explanation would be great because i barely understand how to do this)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 6y - 2z = 12

12x - 6y + 6z = -30

14x + 4z = -18

6x + z = -12

14x + 4z = -18

-24x - 4z = 48

-10x = 30

x = -3

6(-3) + z = -12

-18 + z = -12

z = 6

-3 + 3y - 6 = 6

-9 + 3y = 6

3y = 15

y = 5

x = -3, y = 5, z = 6

since we know that the two functions are equal, f (x) = g

(x), therefore when we equate the two equations the result should be similar to

3x = x – 4:

a. f(x) = 3x, g(x) = x – 4

equating the two functions:

3x = x – 4             (correct)

so we now got our answer (a)
