Solve by Substitution y=2x , 8x-4y=0

$y = 2 x$ , $8 x - 4 y = 0$

Step 1

Replace all occurrences of $y$ with $2 x$ in each equation.

Replace all occurrences of $y$ in $8 x - 4 y = 0$ with $2 x$ .

$8 x - 4 (2 x) = 0$

$y = 2 x$

Simplify the left side.

Simplify $8 x - 4 (2 x)$ .

Multiply $2$ by $- 4$ .

$8 x - 8 x = 0$

$y = 2 x$

Subtract $8 x$ from $8 x$ .

$0 = 0$

$y = 2 x$

$0 = 0$

$y = 2 x$

$0 = 0$

$y = 2 x$

$0 = 0$

$y = 2 x$

Step 2

Remove any equations from the system that are always true.

$y = 2 x$
