Compare coordinates

  • x-3=4
  • x=4+3
  • x=7

And

  • x+y=-6
  • y=-6-x
  • y=-6-7
  • y=-13

Answer:

See below ~

Explanation:

Given

  • (x - 3, 6) = (4, x + y)

Equating x coordinates to find the value of x

  • x - 3 = 4
  • x = 7

Equating y coordinates to find the value of y

  • 6 = x + y
  • 6 = 7 + y
  • y = -1
