how do you rearrange this problem?
\n" ); document.write( "(i) \"2x+%2B+y+%2B+1+=+0\"
\n" ); document.write( "(ii) \"x+%2B+3y+%2B+3+=+0+\"
\n" ); document.write( "solve (i) for y as
\n" ); document.write( "(iii) \"y+=+-2x+-+1\"
\n" ); document.write( "solve (ii) for y as
\n" ); document.write( "(iv) \"y+=+%28-1%2F3%29x+-+1\"
\n" ); document.write( "Now if you are to solve for x and y, we get
\n" ); document.write( "(0,-1)
\n" ); document.write( "-----

\n" ); document.write( "(i) \"2x+-+y+-+8+=+0\"
\n" ); document.write( "(ii) \"x+%2B+3y+%2B+3+=+0\"
\n" ); document.write( "solve (i) for y as

\n" ); document.write( "solve (ii) for y as
\n" ); document.write( "(iii) \"y+=+%28-1%2F3%29x+-+1\"
\n" ); document.write( "Now if you are to solve for x and y, we get
\n" ); document.write( "(3,-2)
