Step 1:

Write the two equations

x = y

x + y = 4

Step 2:

Use the substitution method

substitute x = y in equation 2

Step 3


\begin{gathered} x\text{ + y = 4} \\ \text{ y + y = 4} \\ 2y\text{ = 4} \\ \text{y = }(4)/(2) \\ y\text{ = 2} \end{gathered}

Step 4:

y = 2

x = 2

Final answer

The solution is (2,2)

Graphical solution

True
