You can put this solution on YOUR website! Im guessing its telling you to solve using substitution ? Well your lucky, most of the work is already done :D
 you know y=x-7 , so just replace y with (x - 7) in the other equation
 4x - 7(x-7) = 10
 4x - 7x + 49 = 10
 -3x = -39
 x = 13
 Now just plug X in the original equation to fine Y
 y = x - 7
 y = 13 - 7
 y = 6
 so the solution would be
 (13,6)
