From the first equation, 2a = 3b - 5
So, 2(3b-5) + 3b = 17. Therefore, 9b = 27. So, b = 3
Thus, 2a = 3(3) - 5 = 4. So, a = 2.
Finally, 5c - 2(2) = 1. So, c = 1

asked 12/22/212a-3b=-5, 4a+3b=17, 5c-2a=1
From the first equation, 2a = 3b - 5
So, 2(3b-5) + 3b = 17. Therefore, 9b = 27. So, b = 3
Thus, 2a = 3(3) - 5 = 4. So, a = 2.
Finally, 5c - 2(2) = 1. So, c = 1
