Add the equations to eliminate y.
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2By%2Bx-y=12-2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2x=10\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=5\"
\n" ); document.write( "THen use either equation to solve for y.
\n" ); document.write( "\"5%2By=12\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=-7\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
