The system of equations are .
Use the elimination method to make a system of two equations in two variables.
\To get two equations 1 and 2 that contain opposite coefficient of x - variable multiply the first equation by 2.
\Write the equations 1 and 2 in column form and add the corresponding columns to eliminate x - variable.
\The resultant equation is taken as fourth equation : y + 4z = 14.
\To get two equations 2 and 3 that contain opposite coefficient of x - variable multiply the third equation by 2.
\Write the equations 2 and 3 in column form and add the corresponding columns to eliminate x - variable.
\The resultant equation is taken as fifth equation : 3y + 12z = 42.
\Solve the system of two equations with two variables.
\To get two equations 4 and 5 that contain opposite coefficient of y - variable multiply the fourth equation by negative 3.
\Write the equations 4 and 5 in column form and add the corresponding columns to eliminate y - variable.
\.
The resultant statement 0 = 0 is false, so the system of equation has infinitely many solutions.
\Let z = t, where t is any real number.
\Use one of the equation with two variables (Equation: 4 or 5) to solve for y.
\The fourth equation: y + 4z = 14.
\y + 4(t) = 14
\y = - 4t + 14.
\Solve for x using one of the original equations with three variables.
\The first equation: x + y + z = 4.
\x + (- 4t + 14) + (t) = 4
\x - 3t + 14 = 4
\x - 3t = - 10
\x = 3t - 10.
\The solution (x, y, z) = (3t - 10, - 4t + 14, t), where t is any real number.
