- so elimination method --- multiplie first equation by 2 and second by 3 so than will get 
10x +6y=-14
12x -6y = -30
-------------- assum these equations  
22x   0  = -44
x= -44/22 = -2

x=-2 so than this result substitute in place of x and than will get 

5*(-2) +3y = -7
-10 +3y = -7
3y= 3
y=3/3

y=1

so than x=-2
            y= 1
