Answer:

B.

{(0, 0), (2, 8)}

Explanation:

Substitute 4x in for y in the second equation.


2x^(2) - 4x = 0\\

2x(x - 2) = 0

x = 0 or x - 2 = 0

x = 2

Substitute x = 0 and x = 2 in the first equation to get the corresponding values for y

4(0) = y and 4(2) = y

y = 0 or y = 8

So, B is the correct answer
