Answer:

(0, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can just substitute the y's like this: 2x - 4 = -2x - 4

Move like terms to one side by adding 2x to both sides

2x - 4 = -2x - 4

+ 2x      + 2x

4x - 4 = - 4

Add 4 to both sides

4x - 4 = - 4

    + 4   + 4

4x = 0

Divide both sides by 4

4x/4 = 0/4

x = 0

Plug in the new x into one of the original equations

y = 2(0) - 4

y = 0 - 4

y = - 4
