For the first row, where x is equal to 7, to find y plug 7 in for x like so...

y = 7 - 3

y = 4

For the second row, where y is equal to 1, to find x plug 1 in for y like so...

1 = x - 3

To solve for x add 3 to both sides. This will cancel 3 from the right side:

1 + 3 = x - 3 + 3

4 = x + 0

x = 4

For the third row, where y is equal to 7, to find x plug 7 in for y like so...

7 = x - 3

To solve for x add 3 to both sides. This will cancel 3 from the right side:

7 + 3 = x - 3 + 3

10 = x + 0

x = 10

First row: y is 4

Second row: x is 4

Third row: x is 10

Hope this helped!
