Answer:

There are no solutions to this system of equations.

Explanation:

To find this, solve by elimination. Start by multiplying the first equation by -2 and then add them together.

4x - 2y = 2

-4x + 2y = 1

-----------------

0 = 3

Since this is a false statement, we know that there is no solution to this system of equations.
