Given equation:


\begin{gathered} x+y=3.\ldots1) \\ 2x+7=-2y\ldots(2) \end{gathered}

use elimination method.

consider the equation (2),


\begin{gathered} 2x+7=-2y \\ \Rightarrow2x+2y=-7\ldots(3) \end{gathered}

consider the equation (1) and multiply with 2,


2x+2y=6\ldots(4)

now consider the equation (3) and (4) and subract them,


\begin{gathered} 2x+2y=-7 \\ -2x-2y=-6 \\ --------- \\ 0=-13 \end{gathered}

The equation is false.

Therefore the system of the equation has no solution.

the answer is (x,y) = (DNE, DNE)
