3-y-z+6y-2z=-8
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.
3+5y-z-2z=-8
Combine -y and 6y to get 5y.
3+5y-3z=-8
Combine -z and -2z to get -3z.
5y-3z=-8-3
Subtract 3 from both sides.
5y-3z=-11
Subtract 3 from -8 to get -11.
5y=-11+3z
Add 3z to both sides.
5y=3z-11
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{5y}{5}=\frac{3z-11}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
y=\frac{3z-11}{5}
Dividing by 5 undoes the multiplication by 5.
3-y-z+6y-2z=-8
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.
3+5y-z-2z=-8
Combine -y and 6y to get 5y.
3+5y-3z=-8
Combine -z and -2z to get -3z.
5y-3z=-8-3
Subtract 3 from both sides.
5y-3z=-11
Subtract 3 from -8 to get -11.
-3z=-11-5y
Subtract 5y from both sides.
-3z=-5y-11
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-3z}{-3}=\frac{-5y-11}{-3}
Divide both sides by -3.
z=\frac{-5y-11}{-3}
Dividing by -3 undoes the multiplication by -3.
z=\frac{5y+11}{3}
Divide -11-5y by -3.
