Equation 3: y = 4z − 7  2(4z − 7) − 3x = −3  8z − 14 − 3x = −3  New system:  3x − 8z = −11    (i)  8z − 3x = 11       (ii)     3x − 8z = −11     (i)  −3x + 8z = 11     (ii)  x and z can be any number, because   the equation (i) is only −(ii).

$$\mathrm{Equation}\:\mathrm{3}:\:{y}\:=\:\mathrm{4}{z}\:−\:\mathrm{7} \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}\left(\mathrm{4}{z}\:−\:\mathrm{7}\right)\:−\:\mathrm{3}{x}\:=\:−\mathrm{3} \\ $$$$\mathrm{8}{z}\:−\:\mathrm{14}\:−\:\mathrm{3}{x}\:=\:−\mathrm{3} \\ $$$${New}\:{system}: \\ $$$$\mathrm{3}{x}\:−\:\mathrm{8}{z}\:=\:−\mathrm{11}\:\:\:\:\left({i}\right) \\ $$$$\mathrm{8}{z}\:−\:\mathrm{3}{x}\:=\:\mathrm{11}\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\left({ii}\right)\: \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$\mathrm{3}{x}\:−\:\mathrm{8}{z}\:=\:−\mathrm{11}\:\:\:\:\:\left({i}\right) \\ $$$$−\mathrm{3}{x}\:+\:\mathrm{8}{z}\:=\:\mathrm{11}\:\:\:\:\:\left({ii}\right) \\ $$$${x}\:\mathrm{and}\:{z}\:\mathrm{can}\:\mathrm{be}\:\mathrm{any}\:\mathrm{number},\:\mathrm{because}\: \\ $$$$\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{equation}\:\left({i}\right)\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{only}\:−\left({ii}\right). \\ $$$$ \\ $$
