Obtain an equivalent system by performing the stated elementary operation on the system.Multiply the third equation by 1/4.3x - y + 4z + w = -104x - z - 2w = 34x - 8y + 3z - w = -20   x + 3y - 8z = 1

A. 3x - y + 4z + w = -10
4x - z - 2w = 3
 x - 2y + z + w = -20 
 x + 3y - 8z = 1
B. 3x - y + 4z + w = -10
4x - z  - 2w = 3
 x - 2y + z - w = -5
  x + 3y - 8z = 1
C. 3x - y + 4z + w = -10
4x - z - 2w = 3
 x - 8+ 3z - w = -20 
 x + 3y - 8z = 1
D. 3x - y + 4z + w = -10
4x - z - 2w = 3
 x - 2y + z - w = -20 
  x + 3y - 8z = 1
