2\left(2x-1\right)-5\left(x-2\right)=0
Consider the first equation. Multiply both sides of the equation by 10, the least common multiple of 5,2.
4x-2-5\left(x-2\right)=0
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 2x-1.
4x-2-5x+10=0
Use the distributive property to multiply -5 by x-2.
-x-2+10=0
Combine 4x and -5x to get -x.
-x+8=0
Add -2 and 10 to get 8.
-x=-8
Subtract 8 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-8}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
x=8
Fraction \frac{-8}{-1} can be simplified to 8 by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
y=7\times 8
Consider the second equation. Insert the known values of variables into the equation.
y=56
Multiply 7 and 8 to get 56.
z=56
Consider the third equation. Insert the known values of variables into the equation.
x=8 y=56 z=56
The system is now solved.
