4x-4y = 8~~~....(i)\\\\y+4x = 2.5~~~...(ii)\\\\(i)-(ii)\\\\~~~~4x-4y-y-4x = 8-2.5\\\\\implies -5y = 5.5\\\\\implies y = -\frac{5.5}5\\\\\implies y= -1.1\\\\\text{Substitute y= -1.1 in eq (i):}\\ \\~~~~4x-4(-1.1) = 8\\\\\implies 4x +4.4. =8\\ \\\implies 4x = 8-4.4\\\\\implies 4x = 3.6\\\\\implies x = \frac{3.6}4\\\\\implies x =0.9\\ \\\text{Hence,}~~ (x,y) = (0.9, ~-1.1)
