We don't do your homework here. Show some work, please.
 
Also it's not a question:
"Hey"
-Hey
"3x^2+xy-y^2=81 ; x+y=7 ??"
-Yes
"OK."

Hi Aladin! :smile:

Hint: do the easy equation first.

So x = … ? :smile:
 
Find y in terms of x and substitute...
 
this isn't even precalculus its basic algebra
 
it is not my home work I am just trying to solve it because I am learning basic math.so please help me in solving this equation
 
Just follow everyone's advice and solve find x in terms of y or vice versa y in terms of x and substitute back into your equation.
 
after you solve in terms of the other with one equation you have to plug in for the other equation
