To simplify this, we need to do PEMDAS (parenthesis then exponents, then multiplication and division, then addition and subtraction). Here, we can't combine any like terms in the parenthesis. Since there's no exponents, that means that the next step is to do multiplication. This gives us:
3 - 15y - 21 + 2y - 6
Now we can combine like terms.
(-15y + 2y) + (3 - 21 - 6)
-13y - 24
Answer:
Since one equation already has one variable isolated(x), it gives you a "value" to input into the other equation to use to solve for the other variable(y).
10(y-3) + 10y = 1
10y - 30 + 10y = 1
20y - 30 = 1
20y = 31
y = 31/20 or 1.55
Now you can use this value to solve for x in one of the original equations.
x = (31/20) - 3
x = -29/30 or -1.45
Hope this helps!

7048/637
Step-by-step explanation:
10 8/13 + 4 24/49
138/13 + 220/49
taking LCM
(138*49 + 220*13) / (13*49)
7048 / 637
