### Solving Systems of Equations Using Matrices

The reduced row echelon form of the augmented matrix of a system of equations is given. Find the solutions of the system.

\[ 
\begin{bmatrix} 
1 & 0 & 0 & | & -5 \\ 
0 & 1 & 0 & | & 7 \\ 
0 & 0 & 0 & | & 6 
\end{bmatrix} 
\]

### Multiple Choice Question
Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer boxes to complete your choice.

- **A.** The system has exactly one solution. The solution is \(( \_\_, \_\_ )\).
  
  (Type integers or fractions.)
  
- **B.** The system has infinitely many solutions of the form \(( \_\_, \_\_, z )\), where \(z\) is any real number.
  
  (Type integers or fractions.)
  
- **C.** The system has no solution.

### Analysis of the Augmented Matrix

- The matrix is in reduced row echelon form (RREF).
- The third row: \([0 \quad 0 \quad 0 \quad | \quad 6]\) indicates an inconsistency in the system (since \(0 \neq 6\)).
  
Thus, the system has no solution.
