Solve the problem.

The following is known about three numbers: If the second number is subtracted from the sum of the first number and 2 times the third number, the result is 3. The third number plus 4 times the first number is 4. The first number plus 3 times the second number plus the third number is 19. Find the three numbers.
[Hint: let x represent the first number, y the second number, and z the third number. Use the given conditions to write and solve a system of equations.]

▸ x = -1, y = 5, z = 8

▸ x = 0, y = 5, z = 4

▸ x = 0, y = 4, z = 7

▸ x = 1, y = 6, z = 4
