Answer:

x = 4, y = 0.

As an ordered pair it is (4, 0).

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewriting the second equation as the same format as the first:

y + x = 4

y - 2x = - 8   Subtract   (1) - (2):

0 + 3x = 12

x = 4.

Plug x = 4 into the first equation:

y + 4 = 4

y = 0.

Check in the second equation:

y = 0 = 2(4) - 8 = 8 -8 = 0.  OK.
