How to solve these simultaneous equation?












0












$begingroup$


I've stumbled upon a very good simultaneous equation with 4 variables and 4 equations, the are as follows



begin{array}{r l}
bc+3d+15a-db-15c-3b=60 & (1) \
d-15c=0 & (2) \
3a-b= -6 & (3) \
b-d-c+a=0 & (4)
end{array}



Just need the values and how to to them.. not case sensitive just in case
Thanks

From $(2)$,
$$d=15c ldots(5)$$
Also from $(3)$, $b=3a+6$. Putting this and $(5)$ in $(4)$,
$$3a+6-15c-c+a=0$$
$$4a-16c+6=0$$
$$a = 4c-frac32 ldots(6)$$
So$$begin{align}
b&=3left(4c-frac32right)+6\
&=12c+frac32 ldots(7)
end{align}$$

Taking values of $a$, $b$ and $d$ from $(5)$, $(6)$ and $(7)$ and putting in $(1)$, we get a quadratic equation in $c$. I hope you can take it from here.



Note: You can do this by solving any three variables with respect to the fourth one. I just solved $a$, $b$ and $d$ w.r.t. $c$ because it seemed easier.
