-3x+3y�3z=6
-x+y+z= -10
-x�3y�z=-14
solve a system of equations in 3 variables using elimination
--------------
Simplify the top equation to get:
x - y + z = -2
-x + y + z = -10
-x -3y - z = -14
----------------
Add the 1st row to the 2nd
Add the 1st row to the 3rd
x - y + z = -2
0 + 0 +2z = -12
0 -4y + 0 = -16
------
Solve the 2nd row for "z":
Solve the 3rd row for "y":
z = -6
y = 4
----
Solve the 1st row for "x"::
x -4 -6 = -2
x = 8
