1. $\"3x%2B2y=11\"$
\n" ); document.write( "2. $\"4x%2By=-2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply eq. 2 by ( $\"-2\"$ ) and add the equations together.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3x%2B2y-8x-2y=11%2B4\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-5x=15\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28x=-3%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Then use either equation to solve for $\"y\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-9%2B2y=11\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2y=20\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28y=10%29\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
