Solve. If there is no solution or if dependent, so state.
x - y + z = -11
x + y + z = -5
x + y - z = 1
---------------
Using Cramer's Method:
Coefficient determinant = (-1+1-1)-(1+1+1)=-4
The x-determinant = 5--15=20
Therefore x=20/-4=-5
-----------------
The y-determinant = -5-7 = -12
Therefore y = -12/-4 = 3
------------------
the z-determinant = -5-(-17) = 12
Therefore z = 12/-4 = -3
=======================
-------------
x=-5; y=3[ z=-3
