### Linear Systems and Cramer's Rule

Given a linear system of equations below, we are dealing with a matrix equation of the form \( Ax = b \). The determinant of matrix \( A \) is given as 8. Using Cramer's Rule, our goal is to find the value for \( x \).

#### System of Linear Equations

\[
\begin{align*}
x + 3y + 4z &= 3 \\
2x + 6y + 9z &= 5 \\
3x + y - 2z &= 7
\end{align*}
\]

1. **First Equation**: \( x + 3y + 4z = 3 \)
2. **Second Equation**: \( 2x + 6y + 9z = 5 \)
3. **Third Equation**: \( 3x + y - 2z = 7 \)

#### Applying Cramer's Rule
To find \( x \) using Cramer's Rule, we replace the \( x \)-column of matrix \( A \) with the column vector \( b \):

1. **Matrix \( A \)**:

\[
A = \begin{pmatrix}
1 & 3 & 4 \\
2 & 6 & 9 \\
3 & 1 & -2
\end{pmatrix}
\]

2. **Column Vector \( b \)**:

\[
b = \begin{pmatrix}
3 \\
5 \\
7
\end{pmatrix}
\]

3. **Matrix \( A_x \)** (Matrix \( A \) with the \( x \)-column replaced by \( b \)):

\[
A_x = \begin{pmatrix}
3 & 3 & 4 \\
5 & 6 & 9 \\
7 & 1 & -2
\end{pmatrix}
\]

Finally, \( x \) is calculated as:

\[
x = \frac{\det(A_x)}{\det(A)}
\]

Given \( \det(A) = 8 \), calculate \( \det(A_x) \) and then use it in the above formula to find \( x \).

#### Detailed Explanation
1. **Step-by-Step Method**
   - Compute the determinant of matrix \( A_x \).
   - Use \( x = \frac{\det(A_x)}{\
