1. $\"4x-5y=20\"$
\n" ); document.write( "2. $\"5x%2B5y=70\"$
\n" ); document.write( "From eq. 2,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5y=70-5x\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute this expression into eq. 1,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4x-%2870-5x%29=20\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4x-70%2B5x=20\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"9x=90\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28+x=10%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Then,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5y=70-5x\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5y=70-50\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5y=20\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28y=4%29\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
