<PRE><B>Question 970398</B>
Add the equations


y = x-4
y = -x+8
---------
2y = 0x + 4


So if 2y = 4, then y = 2 (divide both sides by 2)


Now use y = 2 to get the value of x


y = x-4


2 = x-4


x-4 = 2


x = 2+4


x = 6


-------------------------------------------------------


So the solutions are x = 6 and y = 2. Stated as an ordered pair, the solution is (6,2)</PRE>
