System of Equations
Definition
A system of equations is a set of two or more equations in several
equations.
A solution of a system is a solution common to all equations in the
system.
The solution set of a system is the set of all its solutions.

Linear Equations in Three Variables
Definition
An equation of the form ax + by + cz + d = 0, where a, b, c, d

and a, b, c not all zero, is called a linear equation in the three variables
x, y, and z.
An ordered triple (r, s, t) of real numbers is a solution of an equation
in three variables x, y, z if the equation is satisfied when r, s, and t
are substituted into x, y, and z respectively.
Example: One of the solutions of a + b c + 4 = 0 is a = 1, b = 1, c = 2.
