TO SOLVE THESE PROBLEMS YOU NEED TO SUBSTITUTE THE (X,Y) VALUES INTO THE EQUATION AND SEE IT (X-Y)=4 IF THEY DO NOT THEN THE (X,Y) VALUES ARE NOT VALID.
IF (X-Y)=4 THEN THES ARE SOLUTIONS.
3-1=4
2 DOES NOT EQUAL 4 NOT A SOLUTION
----------------------------------
0-(-4)=4
4=4 THIS SET IS A SOLUTION
------------------------------------
-4-0=4
-4 DOES NOT EQUAL 4 NOT A SOLUTION
-------------------------------------
-3-(-7)=4
-3+7=4
4=4 THIS ALSO IS A SOLUTION
