Add the two equations together,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x-2y-x%2B5y=-1%2B4\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3y=3\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28y=1%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Then
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x-2=-1\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28x=1%29\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
