    (-3,2)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To solve this, I will use substitution. First, isolate y in one of the equations;

    -2x+y=8

    -3x-y=7

    -2x+y=8 is the same as y=2x+8, Now plug y into the other equation to solve for x;

    -3x - (2x+8) = 7 Solve for x

    -5x-8=7

    -5x=15

    x=-3, Now plug in x in either equation to solve for y;

    -2 (-3) + y=8

    6+y=8

    y=2, The answer to this system is (-3,2)
