Please, help me to solve this problems by Cramer's rule

Question number :
1. 5/x + 3/y = 19
2/x + 1/y = 7

Question number :
2. log x + 2 log y = 4
2 log x - 3 log y = 1

The Answer for number 1 :
D = -1
Dx = -2
Dy = -3

The answer for number 2 :
D = -5
Dx = -14
Dy = -3

Please, explain me the steps to get both of that answer..

Your text explains Cramer's Rule, surely. Read it where it discusses taking determinants of coefficients. Or google cramers rule for lots of examples.

Fo the first,
D =
|5 3|
|2 1| = 5-6 = -1

Dx =
|19 3|
|7 1| = 19-21 = -2

x = Dx/D = 2

and similarly for the other parts
let u = 1/x
let v = 1/y

5 3 |u| 19
2 1 |v| 7

D = 5*1-3*2 = 5-6 = -1
Du = 19*1-3*7 = 19-21 = -2
Dv = 5*7-19*2 = 35-38 = -3

then u = Du/D = -2/-1 = 2
so
x = 1/u = 1/2

and v = Dv/D = -3/-1 = 3
so
y = 1/3

You have typos I think
I assume the second one is actually
log x + 2 log y = 4
log x - 3 log y = 1
let u = log x and v = log y

1 +2 |u| 4
1 -3 |v| 1

D = 1(-3)-2(1) = -3-2 = -5
etc
