Answer:

{x,y}={-8,-2}

Step-by-step explanation:

 [1]    x = 2y - 4

Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [2]

  [2]    7•(2y-4) + 5y = -66

  [2]    19y = -38

Solve equation [2] for the variable  y

  [2]    19y = - 38

  [2]    y = - 2

By now we know this much :

   x = 2y-4

   y = -2

Use the  y  value to solve for  x

   x = 2(-2)-4 = -8
