we are given

system of equations as


y=3x-7


15x-5y=14

We can use substitution method

We can plug value of y into other equation

and we get


15x-5(3x-7)=14

now, we can simplify it


15x-5*3x-7*-5=14


15x-15x+35=14


0+35=14


35=14

We know that

35 can never be equal to 14

so, this does not satisfies it's equality itself

so, there is no solution...........Answer
