Given:


\begin{gathered} y=-x+4------(1) \\ y=4x-6------(2) \end{gathered}

Required:

To find the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract (1) - (2), we get


\begin{gathered} y-y=-x-4x+4-(-6) \\ \\ 0=-5x+10 \\ \\ 5x=10 \\ \\ x=(10)/(5) \\ \\ x=2 \end{gathered}

Now put x in equation (1), we get


\begin{gathered} y=-2+4 \\ y=2 \end{gathered}

Final Answer:

The option B is correct.
