Multiply equation (i) by 10 and equation (ii) by 21, then subtract both from equation (iii):
\[ 10 \cdot (7x + 11y + \alpha z) + 21 \cdot (5x + 4y + 7z) - (175x + 194y + 57z) = 0 \]
Expand and simplify:
Subtracting, we get:
\[ z \cdot (10\alpha + 147 - 57) = 130 + 21\beta - 361 \]
Which simplifies to:
\[ z \cdot (10\alpha + 90) = 21\beta - 231 \]
Equating the coefficient of \(z\), we have:
\[ 10\alpha + 90 = 0 \]
Solving for \(\alpha\):
\[ \alpha = -9 \]
Substitute \(\alpha = -9\) into the simplified equation:
\[ 130 - 361 + 21\beta = 0 \]
Which simplifies to:
\[ 21\beta = 231 \]
Solving for \(\beta\):
\[ \beta = 11 \]
Check if the condition \(\alpha + \beta + 2 = 4\) is satisfied:
\[ -9 + 11 + 2 = 4 \]
The condition is satisfied.
