X + Y + Z = 6
4X + 2Y + Z = 9
7X + 4Y + Z = 9
--------------
|1 1 1 6|
|4 2 1 9| = 0
|7 4 1 9|
---------------
DET = 1*(2-4) -1*(4-7) + 1*(16-14) = -2 +3 +2
DET = 3
--------------
x*DET = 1*(9-9) -1*(18-36) +6*(2-4) = 18 - 12 = 6
X = 2
---------
-y*DET = 1*(9-9) -1*(36-63) +6*(4-7) = 27 -18 = 9
y = -3
----------
z*DET = 1*(18-36) -1*(36-63) +6*(16-14) = -18 +27 +12 = 21
z = 7
