Finally, the solution to the system of equations is \((x, y, z) = \boxed{(-5, -9, 2.5)}\)

Steps

Step 1 :First, convert the system of equations into matrix form. The coefficients of x, y, and z in each equation will form the matrix 'A' and the constants on the right side of the equations will form the vector 'b'.

Step 2 :Matrix 'A' and vector 'b' are as follows: \(A = \left[ \begin{array}{ccc} 1 & 1 & 6 \ \frac{1}{3} & -\frac{1}{3} & \frac{2}{3} \ \frac{1}{2} & 0 & 1 \end{array} \right]\) and \(b = \left[ \begin{array}{c} 1 \ 3 \ 0 \end{array} \right]\)

Step 3 :Next, solve for the vector 'x' which contains the values of x, y, and z.

Step 4 :The solution to the system of equations is \(x = \left[ \begin{array}{c} -5 \ -9 \ 2.5 \end{array} \right]\)

Step 5 :Finally, the solution to the system of equations is \((x, y, z) = \boxed{(-5, -9, 2.5)}\)
