y = x-2

y = -2x+7

Move x and -2x to the other sides of the equations noting that the + and - signs will change in order to keep the equations in balance:

y-x = -2

y+2x = 7

Subtract the bottom equation from the top equation:

-3x = -9

Divide both sides by -3 to find the value of x:

x = 3 and y = 1
