Question
Answer:

[tex]x - y = 7 \\ y = 3x + 12[/tex]

First
[tex]x - y = 7 \\ x = 7 + y[/tex]
Substitute that into
[tex]y = 3(7 + y) + 12 \\ y = 21 + 3y + 12 \\ 2y = - 33 \\ y = - \frac{33}{2} [/tex]
Substitute that into
[tex]x = 7 + ( - \frac{33}{2} ) \\ x = \frac{14}{2} - \frac{33}{2} \\ x = - \frac{19}{2} [/tex]
x = -19/2, y = -33/2
