10th Maths Exercise 3.19 Question 2.
The solution of the system x + y – 3z = – 6, -7y + 7z = 7, 3z = 9 is …………
(1) x = 1, y = 2, z = 3
(2) x = -1, y = 2, z = 3
(3) x = -1, y = -2, z = 3
(4) x = 1, y = 2, z = 3
(1) x = 1, y = 2, z = 3
Hint.
x + y – 3x = – 6 ….(1)
– 7y + 7z = 7 ….(2)
3z = 9 ….(3)
From (3) we get
z = $$\frac { 9 }{ 3 }$$ = 3
Substitute the value of z in (2)
-7y + 7(3) = 7
-7y = -14
Substitute the value of y = 2 and z = 3 in (1)
x + 2 – 3(3) = -6
x + 2 – 9 = -6
x = -6 + 7
x = 1
The value of x = 1, y = 2 and z = 3
