Fill in the Blank

A parts manager is using the following system of linear equations to manage inventory for three different components (x, y, and zz):

{x+y−z=02x+4y−2z=63x+6y−3z=9\left\{\begin{array}{l} x + y - z = 0 {}2x + 4y - 2z = 6 {}3x + 6y - 3z = 9 \end{array}\right.

After using the elimination method to remove the variable xx from the system, the manager finds that the variable yy simplifies to a single numerical value. What is that constant value?
