Accepted Solution

A:
Answer: {y,x} = {-6,-2} Step-by-step explanation:/ Solve equation [2] for the variable  y    [2]    y = 2x - 2// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [1]   [1]    (2x-2) - x = -4   [1]    x = -2// Solve equation [1] for the variable  x     [1]    x = - 2 // By now we know this much :    y = 2x-2    x = -2// Use the  x  value to solve for  y      y = 2(-2)-2 = -6
