Multply first equation by 2: 

4x+2y = 10
3x-2y = 25

Add The equations: 

7x = 35

Solve for x: 

x = 7
y = -9

I told you I could explain this to you, but you never replied.

not having a teacher does sort of suck. One idea i have is a guy that does videos for math, PatrickJMT. I find his videos very explanatory like a teacher. You can find his videos either on youtube (search for patrickjmt) or you can go to his site www.PatrickJMT.com
