\"Y=C%2BI%2BG\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"C=a%2BbY\"
\n" ); document.write( "Let's substitute to simplify the knowns.
\n" ); document.write( "\"d=I%2BG\"
\n" ); document.write( "So then,
\n" ); document.write( "1.\"Y=C%2Bd\"
\n" ); document.write( "2.\"C=bY%2Ba\"
\n" ); document.write( "You're solving for C and Y.
\n" ); document.write( "You can do a direct substitution using eq. 1 in eq. 2 and solving for C.
\n" ); document.write( "\"C=bY%2Ba\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"C=b%28C%2Bd%29%2Ba\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"C=bC%2Bbd%2Ba\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"C-bC=bd%2Ba\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"C%281-b%29=bd%2Ba\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"C=%28bd%2Ba%29%2F%281-b%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Then go back and solve for Y using eq. 1,
\n" ); document.write( "\"Y=C%2Bd\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"Y=%28bd%2Ba%29%2F%281-b%29%2Bd\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"Y=%28bd%2Ba%29%2F%281-b%29%2Bd%281-b%29%2F%281-b%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"Y=%28bd%2Ba%2Bd%281-b%29%29%2F%281-b%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"Y=%28bd%2Ba%2Bd-bd%29%2F%281-b%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"Y=%28a%2Bd%29%2F%281-b%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Now we can go back and re-substitute,\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight_green%28C=%28b%28I%2BG%29%2Ba%29%2F%281-b%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight_green%28Y=%28a%2BI%2BG%29%2F%281-b%29%29\"
