Solve this system of equations using substitution (show your work).

x + 3=7
3x+ y=7

Show work

From the first equation, we can solve for x:

x + 3 = 7
x = 7 - 3
x = 4

Now, we substitute this value of x into the second equation to solve for y:

3(4) + y = 7
12 + y = 7
y = 7 - 12
y = -5

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is x = 4 and y = -5.
