1.\"%281%2F3%29x+%2B+%281%2F2%29y+=+-3\"
\n" ); document.write( "2.\"%281%2F3%29x+%2B+3y+=+-13\"
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract eq. 1 from eq. 2 to eliminate \"x\".
\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%2F3%29x%2B3y-%281%2F3%29x-%281%2F2%29y=-13-%28-3%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%285%2F2%29y=-10\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28y=-4%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Then use either equation to solve for \"x\"
