\n" );
document.write( "Hi, 
\n" );
document.write( "*Note: either substitution or elimination would work. Sets up well for elimination
\n" );
document.write( "2x=-7+3y
\n" );
document.write( "2x - 3y = -7\r
\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "2x - 3y = -7
\n" );
document.write( "3x - 4y = -9\r
\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "-8x + 12y = 28    Mulitplying both sides of the first equation by -4
\n" );
document.write( " 9x - 12y = -27   Mulitplying both sides of the second equation by 3
\n" );
document.write( "x = 1
\n" );
document.write( "2*1 = -7+ 3y
\n" );
document.write( "9 = 3y
\n" );
document.write( "y = 3 \n" );
document.write( "

\n" );
