\n" ); document.write( "2W+1T=58...........eq 1
\n" ); document.write( "W=T+11..............eq 2
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "take the value of W in eq 2 and plug it into eq 1
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "2(T+11)+T=58
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "2T+22+T=58
