To solve the system of equations, we can use the method of elimination or substitution.

Using elimination, we can add the two equations together to eliminate the x term:

(-3x - 4y) + (3x - 5y) = -23 + 5
-9y = -18
y = 2

Substituting y = 2 into one of the equations, we can solve for x:

3x - 5(2) = 5
3x - 10 = 5
3x = 15
x = 5

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is (5, 2). Answer: \boxed{(5, 2)}.
