Given:

1. x + 2 = 2y

2. 1/x + 1/y = 1

We'll solve equation 1 for x in terms of y:

x = 2y - 2

Now, we'll substitute x = 2y - 2 into equation 2:

1/(2y - 2) + 1/y = 1

Solving this equation, we find y = 2 or y = 1/2.

For y = 2, x = 2.

For y = 1/2, x = 0.

Therefore, the solutions for x and y simultaneously are:

(x, y) = (2, 2)

(x, y) = (0, 1/2)
