Find the value of x and y if 7^x+y=343 and 7^x-y=49?

Your writing is ambiguous. To avoid ambiguity, use parentheses.
It is mandate when you post formulas to this site.
So , I am reading your post in this way: = 343, = 49.
Then
x + y = 3,
x - y = 2,
and you can easily solve it on your own, if you add the two equations as the first step.

-----------------------
Note: 343 = 7^3
49 = 7^2
-------------------
7^(x+y) = 7^3
7^(x-y) = 7^2
------------------------
x+y = 3
x-y = 2
-------------
Add and solve for "x"::
2x = 5
x = 5/2
--------
y = x - 2 = (5/2)-2 = 1/2
----------------------------
