Mark is solving the following systems Step 1: He multiplies equation (1) by 7 and adds it to equation (3). Step 2: He multiplies equation (3) by 2 and adds it to equation (2). Which statement explains Mark’s mistake? He added equation (3) instead of equation (2) in step 1. He did not multiply equation (3) by the same number as equation (1). He did not eliminate the same variables in steps 1 and 2. He added equation the equations in step instead of subtracting them.

Solving the system of linear equations Mark tries to apply elementary transformations in order to eliminate one variable.

He makes such steps:

1. He multiplies equation (1) x+y+z=2 by 7 and adds it to equation (3) 4x-y-7z=16. This gives him:

7x+7y+7x+4x-y-7z=14+16,

11x+6y=30.

2. He multiplies equation (3)  4x-y-7z=16 by 2 and adds it to equation (2) 3x+2y+z=8. This step gives him:

8x-2y-14z+3x+2y+z=32+8,

11x-13z=40.

Thus, he did not eliminate the same variables in steps 1 and 2.

correct choice is he did not eliminate the same variables in steps 1 and 2.

Hope this helps you :)! If you would mark me brainliest, that would be awesome!

step-by-step explanation:

substitution for (0,1)

y=x^2+4x+1

1=0^2+4(x)0+1

1=0+4(x)0+1

1=4(x)0+1

1=0+1

1=1

substitution for (-3,-2)

y=x+1

-2=-3+1

-2=-2
