1. $\"3x%2B5y=-6\"$
\n" ); document.write( "2. $\"x-2y=-2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply eq. 2 by (-3) and add to eq. 1,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3x%2B5y-3x%2B6y=-6%2B6\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"11y=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28y=0%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Then from eq. 2,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x-2%280%29=-2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28x=-2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
