First, let's find y by substituting x for what x is equal to, so that we will only have one variable and we can solve the equation.
x = y Given
x - 3y = 4 Given
y - 3y = 4 Substitute x for y, because x = y
-2y = 4 Subtract
y = -2 Divide
Now, to find x, we need to substitute our value for y back into the original equation.
x = y
x = -2 Substitute -2 for y, since y = -2
The correct answer is (-2,-2).
Hope this helps!

if x = y then put x where y is or y wherever x is.
x-3x=4
-2x = 4
x = -2
now plug that in to find y
x-3y = 4
-3y = 4+2
-3y = 6
y = -2
x-3x=4
-2x = 4
x = -2
now plug that in to find y
x-3y = 4
-3y = 4+2
-3y = 6
y = -2
