We need to find the solution to the system of equations, writing x and y in terms of z.

Isolating x in the second equation, we obtain:


\begin{gathered} x+3z=-5 \\ \\ x+3z-3z=-5-3z \\ \\ x=-3z-5 \end{gathered}

Now, using the above expression for x, in terms of z, in the third equation, we obtain:


\begin{gathered} -3x+y-4z=7 \\ \\ -3(-3z-5)+y-4z=7 \\ \\ 9z+15+y-4z=7 \\ \\ y+5z+15=7 \\ \\ y+5z+15-5z-15=7-5z-15 \\ \\ y=-5z-8 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the answers are:


\begin{gathered} x=-3z-5 \\ \\ y=-5z-8 \end{gathered}
