Algebra.Com's Answer #186708 by richwmiller(17219) You can put this solution on YOUR website! set the top and bottoms equal and the right and left equal and solve them as a system of linear equations \n" ); document.write( "3x-4y=18 \n" ); document.write( "5x+y=7 \n" ); document.write( "x=2 y=-3 \n" ); document.write( " |
