This question uses the linear algebra extension to generate a system of linear equations which can be solved.
\nWe want to produce an equation of the form $\\mathrm{A}\\mathbf{x} = \\mathbf{y}$, where $\\mathrm{A}$ and $\\mathbf{y}$ are given, and $\\mathbf{x}$ is to be found by the student.
\nFirst, we generate a linearly independent set of vectors to form $\\mathrm{A}$, then freely pick the value of $\\mathbf{x}$, and calculate the corresponding $\\mathbf{y}$.
\nTo generate $\\mathrm{A}$, we generate more vectors we need, then pick a linearly independent subset of those using the subset_with_dimension
function.
\\begin{align}
\\simplify{ {system[0][0]}x + {system[0][1]}y + {system[0][2]}z } &= \\var{rhs[0]} \\\\
\\simplify{ {system[1][0]}x + {system[1][1]}y + {system[1][2]}z } &= \\var{rhs[1]} \\\\
\\simplify{ {system[2][0]}x + {system[2][1]}y + {system[2][2]}z } &= \\var{rhs[2]} \\\\
\\end{align}
