1. Solve one equation for one of the variable. Replace the variable for the equivalent expression, in the remaining equations.2. Add one equation (possibly multiplied by some factor) to another equation, in such a way that one of the variables get eliminated.
For the specific case of linear equations, there are several additional methods, for example using determinants, or matrices.

To solve a three variable system of equations you can use a combination of the elimination and substitution methods?
True. To solve a three variable system of equations you can use a combination of the elimination and substitution methods.
5x plus 3y plus z equals -29 solve this system of equation?
To solve an equation with three unknowns, x, y and z, you require 3 independent equations.
Solve the equation 4x plus 8y plus 12z equals 44?
Solving equations in three unknowns (x, y and z) requires three independent equations. Since you have only one equation there is no solution. The equation can be simplified (slightly) by dividing through by 4 to give: x + 2y + 3z = 11
What are three ways of solving a system of linear equations?
I'll assume the simplified case of two equations, with two variables each. Some of the methods can be extended to more complicated cases.Substitution: Solve for one variable in one equation, replace it in the other equation.Setting two quantities equal: For example, if 5x + 3y = 10, and 5x - 2y = 0, solve each equation for "5x", and set the two equal, with the result: 10 - 3y = 2y.Addition/subtraction: Add or subtract one equation (or a multiple of one equation) to the other. In the previous example, if you subtract the second equation from the first, you get an equation that doesn't contain x.In any of these cases, after solving for a single variable, replace in one of the original equations to get the other variable.
What is the answer to 6x 2y 5z-4x 2z-5y?
The "answer" would be a set of three numbers ... the numbers that 'x', 'y', and 'z' must be in order to make the statements true. In order to find them, you need three separate equations, because you have three separate unknowns. Without three separate equations, the only thing you can find is some equations that describe one unknown in terms of the others, but you can't find unique values for them. Even with the missing operators in the question, we're pretty sure that there are most likely not three "equals" signs there, and that you haven't stated three separate equations.
What is a method used to solve systems of equations in which the solution is the point where the lines intersect?
there are three methods: combination, substitution and decomposition.
To solve a three variable system of equations you can use a combination of the elimination and substitution methods?
True. To solve a three variable system of equations you can use a combination of the elimination and substitution methods.
What methods of solving systems are needed to solve a three variable system?
Simultaneous equations are usually used in mathematics to find the values of three variables within a system.
How do you do systems of equations?
There are several methods to do this; the basic idea is to reduce, for example, a system of three equations with three variables, to two equations with two variables. Then repeat, until you have only one equation with one variable. Assuming only two variables, for simplicity: One method is to solve one of the equations for one of the variables, then replace in the other equation. Another is to multiply one of the equations by some constant, the other equation by another constant, then adding the resulting equations together. The constants are chosen so that one of the variables disappear. Specifically for linear equations, there are various advanced methods based on matrixes and determinants.
How do you solve 3 dimensional equations?
You can solve the system of equations with three variables using the substitute method, or using matrix operations.
How do you solve xyz equals 5 plus z?
You cannot solve one equation in three unknowns. You need three independent equations.
How do you solve three nonlinear equations in three parameters?
There isn't a universal way to do this, just like there isn't a universal way to solve nonlinear equations in one variable. A good place to start, however, would be to attempt to solve an equation for one of the variables, in terms of the other two. If you substitute that into the other equations, you will then have a system of two equations in two variables. Do this again, and you'll have a single variable equation that you'll hopefully know how to solve.
-w plus 2x plus 4y equals?
You need three independent equations to solve for three unknown variables.
5x plus 3y plus z equals -29 solve this system of equation?
To solve an equation with three unknowns, x, y and z, you require 3 independent equations.
How do you get the formula center of curvature?
This starts with the collocation circle to go through the three points on the curve. First write the equation of a circle. Then write three equations that force the collocation circle to go through the three points on the curve. Last, solve the equations for a, b, and r.
What are the three ways of solving system of linear eqution?
Systems: 1. Solve for a letter and substitute into the other equation. It is called substitution. 2. Linear combination. Set the equations so the letters match up. Multiply one of the equations so one of the letters will go to zero when yoy add them together and solve for the other letter. 3. Determinants. Setting up square matrix and substituting into the matrix to find the different variables.
IF you need to solve large systems with more than three variables which method is more efficient and why?
For systems with more than three equations, Gaussian elimination is far more efficient. By using Gaussian elimination we bring the augmented matrix into row-echelon form without continuing all the way to the reduced row-echelon form. When this is done, the corresponding system can be solved by the back-substitution technique.
