43=10+5x+12+3y
\n" ); document.write( "43=22+5x+3y
\n" ); document.write( "21=5x+3y
\n" ); document.write( "x=3 y=2
\n" ); document.write( "2 draws of white and 3 draws of red
\n" ); document.write( "or just 7 draws of white and zero red draws
\n" ); document.write( "21-5x=3y
\n" ); document.write( "7-5/3x=y\r
