#x=-7-y, y=-7-x#

Explanation:

Since we don't have the values for the variables, we can only solve this equation in terms of the respective variable. For instance:

We can subtract #y# from both sides to solve for #x#. We get:

#x=-7-y#

Similarly, from the original equation #x+y=-7#, we can subtract #x# from both sides to solve for #y#. We get:

#y=-7-x#

This is the only thing we can do to this equation, since we don't have any value for #x# or #y# to plug in.
