    So if we are solving for x and y. First we need to subtract both equations. We take each equation and put in parenthesis and subtract.

    y-y = (3x+7) - (-2x-3) =

    0 = 3x+7+2x+3

    0 = 5x+10

    -10 = 5x

    -2 = x.

    Now we need to solve for y.

    Plug it in for the first equation. - 2*3+7 = - 6+7 = 1

    Test if we are correct and try in the second equation.

    -2*-2-3 = 4-3 = 1

    x = - 2

    y = 1
