You can solve it using the elimination method:
2x -3y = 61
2x +y = -7 * (-1)
2x -3y = 61
-2x -y = +7
The x will disappear:
-4y = 68
y = 68/-4
y = -17
With Y value, use it on either equation:
2x + (-17) = -7
2x = -7 + 17
2x = 10
x = 10/2
x = 5
2x -3y = 61
2x +y = -7 * (-1)
2x -3y = 61
-2x -y = +7
The x will disappear:
-4y = 68
y = 68/-4
y = -17
With Y value, use it on either equation:
2x + (-17) = -7
2x = -7 + 17
2x = 10
x = 10/2
x = 5
