Determine the values of a, b and c, for which the systems have (1) exactly one solution, (2) no solutions,...

I will just attach a picture. Can someone help me to solve this? I think I missed some information.

Your work looks correct to me. Note that $a-2b+c=0$ is the equation of a plane

Thanks, @pwerth , but I need to determine the values for a,b and c. I have no idea what to do with them.

My point is that there is no way to simplify the answer any further than saying "all values of a,b,c such that $a-2b+c=0$", which you could rephrase as "all points on the plane $a-2b+c=0$. There are obviously infinitely many such points so there is no way you can write them all down

I'll also point out that since you exhausted both cases, you proved that there are no values of $a,b,c$ for which the system has a unique solution.

@pwerth I had this task when my group in college did not start planes. So, there must be a way how to make an answer except yours. I lost my notes, that's why it's hard for me now.

I have the same result as you: If $$a-2b+c=0$$ then we get infinity many solutions. If $$a-2b+cne 0$$ then we get no solutions.Since the last two equations are $$x_2+2x_3=frac{4a-b}{3}$$ and $$x_2+2x_3=frac{7a-c}{6}$$
