How many ordered triples (x,y,z) of integers satisfy the system of equations below?
x 2 − 3 x y + 2 y 2 − z 2 = 31 − x 2 + 6 y z + 2 z 2 = 44 x 2 + x y + 8 z 2 = 100 \begin{array}{l} x^2-3xy+2y^2-z^2=31 \\ -x^2+6yz+2z^2=44 \\ x^2+xy+8z^2=100\\ \end{array} x 2 − 3 x y + 2 y 2 − z 2 = 31 − x 2 + 6 y z + 2 z 2 = 44 x 2 + x y + 8 z 2 = 100
