Answer:

  0

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying the first equation by xy, we have ...

  x^2 +y^2 = -xy

Factoring the expression of interest, we have ...

  x^3 -y^3 = (x -y)(x^2 +xy +y^2)

Substituting for xy using the first expression we found, this is ...

  x^3 -y^3 = (x -y)(x^2 -(x^2 +y^2) +y^2) = (x -y)(0) = 0

The value of x^3 -y^3 is 0.
