Solution Steps

Consider the second equation. Insert the known values of variables into the equation.

$$q=\frac{7\times 2+1}{2}-\frac{5}{6}$$

Multiply 7 and 2 to get 14.

$$q=\frac{14+1}{2}-\frac{5}{6}$$

Add 14 and 1 to get 15.

$$q=\frac{15}{2}-\frac{5}{6}$$

Subtract \frac{5}{6} from \frac{15}{2} to get \frac{20}{3}.

$$q=\frac{20}{3}$$

Consider the third equation. Insert the known values of variables into the equation.

$$r=\frac{20}{3}$$

Consider the fourth equation. Insert the known values of variables into the equation.
