\bf (\stackrel{x}{10}~~,~~\stackrel{y}{-10}) \\\\\\ \begin{cases} x-5\ \textgreater \ 3\\ -y\ \textgreater \ 7 \end{cases}

is it? let's check.

x-5>3 x = 10

(10) - 5 > 3

5 > 3 <----- hmmm is that really true? 5 is indeed greater than 3.

let's check the other condition, "y" being -10.

-y > 7 y = -10

-(-10) > 7

+10 > 7 <---- is 10 greater than 7 really? well, yes it is.

since the coordinates of 10, -10, provide a "true" value for each inequality, then 10,-10 is a solution.
