1. **State the problem:** Solve the system of equations:
$$\begin{cases} x - 3y - 3z = 7 \\ 2x + y + x = 7 \\ x + 2y - 2z = -6 \end{cases}$$
2. **Simplify the second equation:**
$$2x + y + x = 7 \implies 3x + y = 7$$
3. **Rewrite the system:**
$$\begin{cases} x - 3y - 3z = 7 \\ 3x + y = 7 \\ x + 2y - 2z = -6 \end{cases}$$
4. **Express $y$ from the second equation:**
$$3x + y = 7 \implies y = 7 - 3x$$
5. **Substitute $y$ into the first and third equations:**
- First equation:
$$x - 3(7 - 3x) - 3z = 7$$
$$x - 21 + 9x - 3z = 7$$
$$10x - 3z - 21 = 7$$
$$10x - 3z = 28$$
- Third equation:
$$x + 2(7 - 3x) - 2z = -6$$
$$x + 14 - 6x - 2z = -6$$
$$-5x - 2z + 14 = -6$$
$$-5x - 2z = -20$$
6. **Rewrite the two equations with $x$ and $z$:**
$$\begin{cases} 10x - 3z = 28 \\ -5x - 2z = -20 \end{cases}$$
7. **Multiply the second equation by 2 to align $x$ coefficients:**
$$-10x - 4z = -40$$
8. **Add the first and modified second equations:**
$$10x - 3z + (-10x - 4z) = 28 + (-40)$$
$$-7z = -12$$
9. **Solve for $z$:**
$$z = \frac{-12}{-7} = \frac{12}{7}$$
10. **Substitute $z$ back into the first equation:**
$$10x - 3 \times \frac{12}{7} = 28$$
$$10x - \frac{36}{7} = 28$$
$$10x = 28 + \frac{36}{7} = \frac{196}{7} + \frac{36}{7} = \frac{232}{7}$$
$$x = \frac{232}{7 \times 10} = \frac{232}{70} = \frac{116}{35}$$
11. **Find $y$ using $y = 7 - 3x$:**
$$y = 7 - 3 \times \frac{116}{35} = 7 - \frac{348}{35} = \frac{245}{35} - \frac{348}{35} = -\frac{103}{35}$$
**Final answer:**
$$\boxed{\left(x, y, z\right) = \left(\frac{116}{35}, -\frac{103}{35}, \frac{12}{7}\right)}$$
