Answer

Final Answer: \(\boxed{x = 1, y = -2, z = 5}\)

Steps

Step 1 :We are given a system of linear equations: \(x-3y+2z = 17\), \(x-y+z = 8\), and \(y+z = 3\).

Step 2 :We can represent this system in matrix form as follows: \[A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & -3 & 2 \\ 1 & -1 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 & 1 \end{bmatrix}, b = \begin{bmatrix} 17 \\ 8 \\ 3 \end{bmatrix}\]

Step 3 :We solve this system to find the values of x, y, and z.

Step 4 :The solution to the system of equations is \(x = 1\), \(y = -2\), and \(z = 5\).

Step 5 :Final Answer: \(\boxed{x = 1, y = -2, z = 5}\)
