x_{2}=-2x_{1}+3x_{3}-1
Solve 2x_{1}+x_{2}-3x_{3}=-1 for x_{2}.
x_{1}-3\left(-2x_{1}+3x_{3}-1\right)+2x_{3}=10 3x_{1}-\left(-2x_{1}+3x_{3}-1\right)-x_{3}=5
Substitute -2x_{1}+3x_{3}-1 for x_{2} in the second and third equation.
x_{1}=1+x_{3} x_{3}=\frac{5}{4}x_{1}-1
Solve these equations for x_{1} and x_{3} respectively.
x_{3}=\frac{5}{4}\left(1+x_{3}\right)-1
Substitute 1+x_{3} for x_{1} in the equation x_{3}=\frac{5}{4}x_{1}-1.
x_{3}=-1
Solve x_{3}=\frac{5}{4}\left(1+x_{3}\right)-1 for x_{3}.
x_{1}=1-1
Substitute -1 for x_{3} in the equation x_{1}=1+x_{3}.
x_{1}=0
Calculate x_{1} from x_{1}=1-1.
x_{2}=-2\times 0+3\left(-1\right)-1
