@Ty413 by addition method do you mean:
solving the simultaneous equations by adding or subtracting them to get rid of 1 variable
OpenStudy (paxpolaris):
?
here you can subtract the second equation from the first and get rid of the y

can you just solve the problem
OpenStudy (paxpolaris):
x-(-2x) = 3x
y-y = 0
4-1 = 3
so subtract 2nd equation from 1st, we get: \[\Large 3x=3\]\[\implies \Large x=1\]
OpenStudy (paxpolaris):
next plug x=1 in either equation to solve for y
OpenStudy (paxpolaris):
\[\Large 1+y=4\]\[\implies\Large y=3\]
so x=1, and y=3
