    x=1 and y=-1

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Lets name the equations as

    3y+7x=4 or 7x+3y-4=0 ... eq (1)

    -6x+y=-7 or - 6x+y+7=0 ... eq (2)

    multiplying eq (2) with 3 and subtracting eq (1) from eq (2)

    (-6x+y+7=0) * 3

    (-18x+3y+21) - (7x+3y-4) = 0

    we can write it as

    -18x+3y+21-7x-3y+4=0

    -25x + 25=0

    -25x=-25

    x=1

    plugging the value of x in eq (1)

    7*1+3y-4=0

    7+3y-4=0

    3y+3=0

    3y=-3

    y=-1

    so x=1 and y=-1
