To solve the given system of equations using left-to-right elimination, we start by identifying the equations:
1. \( x - 4y + 4z = 27 \) (Equation 1)
2. \( y - 3z = -28 \) (Equation 2)
3. \( y + 3z = 32 \) (Equation 3)
### Step 1: Solve for \( y \) from Equations 2 and 3
Let's start with Equation 2 and Equation 3.
From Equation 2:
\[
y = 3z - 28
\]
From Equation 3:
\[
y = 32 - 3z
\]
Now we can set these two equations for \( y \) equal to one another:
\[
3z - 28 = 32 - 3z
\]
### Step 2: Solve for \( z \)
Combine like terms:
\[
3z + 3z = 32 + 28
\]
\[
6z = 60
\]
\[
z = 10
\]
### Step 3: Find \( y \)
Now substitute \( z = 10 \) back into either Equation 2 or Equation 3. We'll use Equation 2:
\[
y = 3(10) - 28
\]
\[
y = 30 - 28
\]
\[
y = 2
\]
### Step 4: Find \( x \)
Now substitute \( y = 2 \) and \( z = 10 \) back into Equation 1:
\[
x - 4(2) + 4(10) = 27
\]
\[
x - 8 + 40 = 27
\]
\[
x + 32 = 27
\]
\[
x = 27 - 32
\]
\[
x = -5
\]
### Conclusion
Now that we have found the values:
- \( x = -5 \)
- \( y = 2 \)
- \( z = 10 \)
### Final Answer
The one solution is:
- \( x = -5 \),
- \( y = 2 \),
- \( z = 10 \).
Thus, the correct choice is A.
