Solution
Solution Steps
To solve the given system of equations, we can use matrix operations. We will represent the system as a matrix equation \(AX = B\), where \(A\) is the coefficient matrix, \(X\) is the column matrix of variables, and \(B\) is the column matrix of constants. We can then use a numerical method, such as NumPy's linear algebra solver, to find the values of \(x\), \(y\), and \(z\).
Step 1: Set Up the System of Equations
We start with the system of equations given by:
\[
\begin{align*}
& \quad x + y + 9z = -37 \\
& \quad x + y + 5z = -21 \\
& \quad x - 8y + 2z = 36
\end{align*}
\]
Step 2: Solve the System
By applying methods for solving linear equations, we find the values of the variables \(x\), \(y\), and \(z\). The solution yields:
\[
\begin{align_}
x & = 4 \\
y & = -5 \\
z & = -4
\end{align_}
\]
Final Answer
The solution to the system of equations is:
\[
\boxed{x = 4, \, y = -5, \, z = -4}
\]
