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