Add the equations together to eliminate x,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-8x+%2B+3y%2B8x+-+2y=+-5%2B6\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28y=1%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Then use either equation to solve for x.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-8x%2B3=-5\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-8x=-8\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28x=1%29\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
