3\left(x+1\right)=8x+6
Consider the first equation. Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 2,3.
3x+3=8x+6
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x+1.
3x+3-8x=6
Subtract 8x from both sides.
-5x+3=6
Combine 3x and -8x to get -5x.
-5x=6-3
Subtract 3 from both sides.
-5x=3
Subtract 3 from 6 to get 3.
x=-\frac{3}{5}
Divide both sides by -5.
x=-\frac{3}{5} y=8 z=8
The system is now solved.
