x=xyy y=yzz It looks like you’ve written a pair of equations: 𝑥 = 𝑥 𝑦 𝑦 and 𝑦 = 𝑦 𝑧 𝑧 This is a bit unusual, so let’s break it down carefully. 🔎 Step 1: Interpret the notation If we treat 𝑥 , 𝑦 , 𝑧 as variables, then: 𝑥 = 𝑥 ⋅ 𝑦 ⋅ 𝑦 = 𝑥 ⋅ 𝑦 2 𝑦 = 𝑦 ⋅ 𝑧 ⋅ 𝑧 = 𝑦 ⋅ 𝑧 2 So the system is: 𝑥 = 𝑥 𝑦 2 𝑦 = 𝑦 𝑧 2 🔎 Step 2: Simplify each equation From 𝑥 = 𝑥 𝑦 2 : Either 𝑥 = 0 , or 1 = 𝑦 2 . So 𝑦 = ± 1 if 𝑥 ≠ 0 . From 𝑦 = 𝑦 𝑧 2 : Either 𝑦 = 0 , or 1 = 𝑧 2 . So 𝑧 = ± 1 if 𝑦 ≠ 0 . 🔎 Step 3: Possible solutions Case 1: 𝑥 = 0 , 𝑦 = 0 . Then 𝑧 can be anything. Case 2: 𝑥 = 0 , 𝑦 ≠ 0 . Then 𝑦 = ± 1 , and 𝑧 = ± 1 . Case 3: 𝑥 ≠ 0 , 𝑦 = ± 1 . Then 𝑧 = ± 1 . So the solution set is: ( 𝑥 , 𝑦 , 𝑧 ) = ( 0 , 0 , any ) , ( 0 , ± 1 , ± 1 ) , ( any , ± 1 , ± 1 ) ✨ In other words, the system has multiple families of solutions depending on whether 𝑥 or 𝑦 are zero. Would you like me to plot these solutions in 3D space so you can see how they look geometrically? yes See my thinking Here’s the visualization you asked for — the solution families of your system plotted in 3D space: 🧩 How to read the plot Blue line: All points of the form ( 0 , 0 , 𝑧 ) , showing the infinite vertical line along the z-axis. Green points: The discrete solutions ( 0 , ± 1 , ± 1 ) . Red line: All points of the form ( 𝑥 , 1 , 1 ) , showing a line along the x-axis at 𝑦 = 1 , 𝑧 = 1 . Orange line: All points of the form ( 𝑥 , − 1 , − 1 ) , showing a line along the x-axis at 𝑦 = − 1 , 𝑧 = − 1 . Together, these families illustrate the complete solution set: a vertical line, two infinite horizontal lines, and four isolated points. Would you like me to also derive the algebraic structure of these solutions (e.g., showing they form unions of subspaces) so you can see the deeper mathematical pattern? yes Great — the 3D visualization of your system’s solutions is ready. 🧩 What you’ll see in the plot Blue vertical line: All points of the form ( 0 , 0 , 𝑧 ) , representing infinite solutions along the z-axis. Green points: The four isolated solutions ( 0 , ± 1 , ± 1 ) . Red horizontal line: All points of the form ( 𝑥 , 1 , 1 ) , infinite solutions along the x-axis at 𝑦 = 1 , 𝑧 = 1 . Orange horizontal line: All points of the form ( 𝑥 , − 1 , − 1 ) , infinite solutions along the x-axis at 𝑦 = − 1 , 𝑧 = − 1 . Together, these families show that the solution set is a union of lines and discrete points in 3D space.
