Problem 22

Solve the systems of equations. Three oil pumps fill three different tanks. The pumping rates of the pumps (in \(L / h\) ) are \(r_{1}, r_{2},\) and \(r_{3},\) respectively. Because of malfunctions, they do not operate at capacity each time. Their rates can be found by solving the following system of equations: $$\begin{aligned}r_{1}+r_{2}+r_{3} &=14,000 \\\r_{1}+2 r_{2} &=13,000 \\\3 r_{1}+3 r_{2}+2 r_{3} &=36,000\end{aligned}$$
