![If we add the three eqns. x^2 +y^2 +z^2 −xy−yz−zx=14 or (x−y)^2 +(y−z)^2 +(z−x)^2 =28 .....(i) ...from given equations: (y−x)(x+y+z)=3 .....(a) (z−y)(x+y+z)=5 ......(b) (x−z)(x+y+z)=−8 .....(c) hence y−z=(5/3)(x−y) ....(d) z−x=((−8)/3)(x−y) .....(e) replacing in (i) we get, (x−y)^2 [1+((25)/9)+((64)/9)]=28 or (x−y)^2 =((18)/7) .....(f) squaring and adding eqns. (a),(b), and (c) we get (x+y+z)^2 ×28 =9+25+64 =98 or (x+y+z)^2 =(7/2) .....(g) From (d) and (e): (y−z)=(5/3)(x−y) and (z−x)=((−8)/3)(x−y) we get 5x−8y +3z =0 ...(h) From (g) , If x+y+z =+((√7)/( (√2))) using this in (a), y−x = ((3(√2))/( (√7))) , and using it in(b) z−y = ((5(√2))/( (√7))) , and in (c) to get x−z = ((−8(√2))/( (√7))) . x+y+z = ((√7)/( (√2))) ⇒ x+(x+((3(√2))/( (√7))))+(x+((8(√2))/( (√7))))=((√7)/( (√2))) ⇒ 3x =((√7)/( (√2)))−((11(√2))/( (√7))) = −((15)/( (√(14)))) or x =− (5/( (√(14)))) y = x+((3(√2))/( (√7))) = −(5/( (√(14))))+(6/( (√(14)))) or y= (1/( (√(14)))) and z =x+((8(√2))/( (√7))) = ((−5)/( (√(14))))+((16)/( (√(14)))) or z = ((11)/( (√(14)))) . So one solution is (((−5)/( (√(14)))) , (1/( (√(14)))) , ((11)/( (√(14))))) (Answer). and to get the other one we shall take x+y+z = −((√7)/( (√2))) ⇒ 3x−((3(√2))/( (√7)))−((8(√2))/( (√7))) =((−(√7))/( (√2))) ⇒ x= (1/3)(((22)/( (√(14))))−(7/( (√(14))))) = (5/(3(√(14)))) y=x−((3(√2))/( (√7))) = ((−13)/(3(√(14)))) and z = x−((8(√2))/( (√7))) = ((−43)/(3(√(14)))) so other solution is ((5/(3(√(14)))) , ((−13)/(3(√(14)))) , ((−43)/(3(√(14)))) ) . this one dont seem to agree...?!](https://www.tinkutara.com/question/Q23705.png)
