You can solve this system of equations (aka: Simultaneous equations) by the "susbtitution" method.
Substitute equation 1) into equation 2) for y and solve for x.

Simplify and solve for x.

Subtract 19 from both sides of the equation.

Solve this quadratic equation by factoring.

Apply the zero products principle.

Now, to find the value of y, substitute the values of x, one-at-a-time into either of the two original equations and solve for y. Let's take the first equation

and substitute x = 1 then solve for y.
So one of the solutions is: x = 1, y = 12 or (1,12)
Just as a check, you can see that, had we substituted x = 1 into the second equation, we would have obtained the same result.

Subtact 7 from both sides.

Same as before.
Now to get the second solution, substitute x = -10 into the first equation and solve for y.
Now let's try using the second equation.

Add 70 to both sides.

Same as before.
The second solution is: x = -10, y = 89 or (-10, 89}
