The measure of the largest angle of a certain triangle is 6 times the smallest. The measure of the remaining angle is 100 degrees less than te sum of the other two angles. Write a system of 3 equations you could use to solve this problem. x=smallest y=other angle z=largest

z = 6x
y = x + z - 100
x + y + z = 180
