The graphs of the straight lines with equations $y = 2 x$ and $y - x = 2$ have been drawn on the grid.

A coordinate grid with x and y axes ranging from -5 to 5. Two straight lines are plotted. The first line, y = 2x, passes through the points (0, 0), (1, 2), and (2, 4). The second line, y - x = 2, passes through the points (0, 2), (-2, 0), and (2, 4). The two lines intersect at the point (2, 4).

Use the graphs to solve the simultaneous equations

y = 2 x

y - x = 2
