You can put this solution on YOUR website!
First, multiply both sides of $\"-x=-22-2y\"$ by negative 1 to get $\"x=22%2B2y\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2y=-6x%2B62\"$ Start with the first equation.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2y=-6%2822%2B2y%29%2B62\"$ Plug in $\"x=22%2B2y\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2y=-132-12y%2B62\"$ Distribute.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2y=-12y-70\"$ Combine like terms on the right side.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2y%2B12y=-70\"$ Add $\"12y\"$ to both sides.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"10y=-70\"$ Combine like terms on the left side.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=%28-70%29%2F%2810%29\"$ Divide both sides by $\"10\"$ to isolate $\"y\"$ .\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=-7\"$ Reduce.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=22%2B2y\"$ Go back to the second equation\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=22%2B2%28-7%29\"$ Plug in $\"y=-7\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=22-14\"$ Multiply\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=8\"$ Combine like terms.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "===========================================\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Answer:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the solutions are $\"x=8\"$ and $\"y=-7\"$ .\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Which form the ordered pair
