The teacher said the answer is (1,2,-4) but i don't understand how and he gave out the answer as the bell rang. Heres the problem
-x-6y-z=-9
x+6y+2z=5
x-6y-2z=-3
I can get one new equation using the first and third but the rest i get 2 variables that cancel out.

-x-6y-z=-9
x+6y+2z=5
---------------
0+0 +z = -4
z= -4
x+6y+2z=5
x-6y-2z=-3
----------------
2x+0+0 = 2
2x=2
x=2/2
x=1
x+6y+2z=5
6y = 5 - x - 2z
6y = 5 - 1 - 2(-4)
6y = 4 + 8
6y = 12
y = 12/6
y= 2
x+6y+2z=5
---------------
0+0 +z = -4
z= -4
x+6y+2z=5
