You can put this solution on YOUR website! ahhh I LOVE MATRICES :D so just make your equation into a matrix first
 [ 1  -2   4]   [x]       [-8]
 | 2   2  -1|   |y|   =   |11|
 [ 1   1  -2]   [z]       [10]
 Let ^ = A              Let ^ = B
 you CANT divide matrices, so multiply by the inverse, same thing right? :D
 find the inverse of matrix A first, you can simply do this with a calculator
 A^-1 * B
 And you'll find your answers will be
 x = 4
 y = 0
 z = -3
