  1  -1   0   7
  0   1  -1  -3
  1   0   1   4

-R1 + R3 -> R3

  1  -1   0   7
  0   1  -1  -3
  0   1   1  -3 

-R2 + R3 -> R3

  1  -1   0   7
  0   1  -1  -3
  0   0   2   0

R3/2 -> R3

  1  -1   0   7
  0   1  -1  -3
  0   0   1   0

R3 + R2 -> R2

  1  -1   0   7
  0   1   0  -3
  0   0   1   0

R2 + R1 -> R1

  1   0   0   4
  0   1   0  -3
  0   0   1   0


x = 4; y = -3; z = 0
