Answer:

  (x, y) = (2, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can put the second equation into standard form by dividing by -2.

  x -2y = -2

Adding this to the first equation eliminates x

  (x -2y) +(-x -y) = (-2) +(-4)

  -3y = -6

  y = 2 . . . . . divide by -3

  -x -(2) = -4 . . . . substitute for x in the first equation

  2 = x . . . . . . . . add 4+x

The solution is (x, y) = (2, 2).
