3 equations, 3 unknowns, how do i solve!?
hi everyone, i have 3 equations and 3 unknowns:
x = (a/b) + c
y = (a/(b+1)) + c
z = (a/(b+7)) + c
where x, y, z are given in the problem (real #'s), and we need to find the values of a, b, and c.
can anyone tell me how to go about this problem? i tried rigourous algebra of solving and substituting but it became too difficult to isolate one of the variables a, b, or c.
thank you in advance!
