Question 18

Consider systems of three linear equations with unknowns $x,$ $y,$ and $z,$ $$
\begin{cases} a_1 x + b_1 y + c_1 z & = 0 \\ a_2 x + b_2 y + c_2 z & = 0 \\ a_3 x + b_3 y + c_3 z & = 0 \end{cases}
$$ where each of the coefficients is either $0$ or $1$ and the system has a solution other than $x=y=z=0.$ For example, one such system is $$
\begin{cases} 1 x + 1 y + 0 z & = 0 \\ 0 x + 1 y + 1 z & = 0 \\ 0 x + 0 y + 0 z & = 0 \end{cases}
$$ with a nonzero solution of $(x,y,z) = (1, -1, 1).$ How many such systems of equations are there? (The equations in a system need not be distinct, and two systems containing the same equations in a different order are considered different.)
