The correct Answer is:
To solve the given system of equations and find the value of \(-10a - 2b + 2c\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write down the equations We have the following equations: 1. \(3a - 7b = 4d - 9\) 2. \(-4c + 10a = 6b + 7\) 3. \(-2a + 3c - 4d = 10\) ### Step 2: Rearrange equations to isolate \(d\) From equation 1, we can express \(d\): \[ 4d = 3a - 7b + 9 \quad \text{(Equation 1)} \] From equation 3, we can also express \(d\): \[ 4d = -2a + 3c - 10 \quad \text{(Equation 3)} \] ### Step 3: Set the two expressions for \(d\) equal to each other Since both expressions equal \(4d\), we can set them equal: \[ 3a - 7b + 9 = -2a + 3c - 10 \] ### Step 4: Rearrange the equation Rearranging gives: \[ 3a + 2a - 7b - 3c + 9 + 10 = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ 5a - 7b - 3c = -19 \quad \text{(Equation 4)} \] ### Step 5: Rearrange equation 2 From equation 2, we can rearrange it as follows: \[ 10a - 6b - 4c = 7 \] ### Step 6: Subtract equation 4 from equation 2 Now, we will subtract equation 4 from the rearranged equation 2: \[ (10a - 6b - 4c) - (5a - 7b - 3c) = 7 - (-19) \] This simplifies to: \[ 10a - 5a - 6b + 7b - 4c + 3c = 7 + 19 \] Which simplifies to: \[ 5a + b - c = 26 \quad \text{(Equation 5)} \] ### Step 7: Relate to the required expression We need to find the value of \(-10a - 2b + 2c\). Notice that if we multiply equation 5 by \(-2\), we will get: \[ -2(5a + b - c) = -2 \cdot 26 \] This gives: \[ -10a - 2b + 2c = -52 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \(-10a - 2b + 2c\) is: \[ \boxed{-52} \]
