The sum of two numbers is 25.
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 25
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "Twice the larger number subtracted from four times the smaller number is 4.
\n" ); document.write( "4y - 2x = 4
\n" ); document.write( "simplify, divide by 2
\n" ); document.write( "2y - x = 2
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Add to the 1st equation
\n" ); document.write( " x + y = 25
\n" ); document.write( "-x + 2y = 2
\n" ); document.write( "---------------eliminates x, find y:
\n" ); document.write( "3y = 27
\n" ); document.write( "y = \"27%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "y = 9
\n" ); document.write( ":
