    Let's solve the system:

    6+4x-2y = 0

    -3-7y = 10x

    Divide first equation by 2:

    2x-y=-3

    We solve for y:

    y = 2x+3

    In order to find x we replace y in the second equation:

    -3-7 (2x+3) = 10x

    -3-14x-21=10x

    -24 = 24x

    x=-1

    Bonus: To find y we simply compute 2x+3 but we replace x with - 1

    y = 2 (-1) + 3 = 1
