Identify the variables and write them as a column matrix \(X = \begin{bmatrix} x \\ y \\ z \end{bmatrix}\).
Extract the coefficients of the variables from each equation to form the coefficient matrix \(A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 3 & 4 \\ 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 1 & 4 & 3 \end{bmatrix}\).
Write the constants from the right side of each equation as the constant matrix \(B = \begin{bmatrix} -3 \\ -2 \\ -6 \end{bmatrix}\).
Express the system of equations in the matrix form $AX = B$, where \(A\) is the coefficient matrix, \(X\) is the variable matrix, and \(B\) is the constant matrix.
The final matrix equation is \(\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 3 & 4 \\ 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 1 & 4 & 3 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} x \\ y \\ z \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} -3 \\ -2 \\ -6 \end{bmatrix}\).
