You have two equations, each of which is going to graph to two straight lines.

=> or => or

=> or

is a horizontal line where every ordered pair representing a point on the line has a y-coordinate of 3. Similarly, the ordered pairs describing all have y-coordinates of -3.

is a vertical line such that all of the ordered pairs have an x-coordinate of 6. The two horizontal lines will intersect this vertical line at the points (6,3) and (6,-3), giving us two vertices of the quadrilateral.

is a vertical line such that all of the ordered pairs have an x-coordinate of -4. The two horizontal lines will intersect this vertical line at the points (-4,3) and (-4,-3), giving us the other two vertices.
