You would multiply the coefficient of y in this question which is 7 and 3 by the equations. You would type the 7 by the equation that has 3y in it and multiply 3 by the equation has 7y then rewrite it with the new values and then add them in a column and solve them. The y will deleted and x is left and then solve and find x and then substitute in either equation and find y
