Answer

$\{(-2,6)\}$

Work Step by Step

Graph each line (plot two points per line, such as the interceptcs) $x+y=4:\quad \left[\begin{array}{lll} x=0 & ... & y=0\\ y=4 & & x=4\\ (0,4) & & (4,0) \end{array}\right]$ $ x=-2\quad$.... vertical line through $(-2,0)$ There is an intersection point, the solution set is $\{(-2,6)\}$
