Answer:
x = 2 and y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x-y=4&\text{add}\ y\ \text{to both sides}\\x+2y=-2\end{array}\right\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x=4+y&(1)\\x+2y=-2&(2)\end{array}\right\\\\\text{substitute (1) to (2):}\\\\(4+y)+2y=-2\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\4+(y+2y)=-2\qquad\text{subtract 4 from both sides}\\\\3y=-6\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\y=-2\\\\\text{put the value of}\ y\ \text{to (1):}\\\\x=4+(-2)\\\\x=2[/tex]
