5x + y = 14.94
\n" ); document.write( "3x + 2y = 22.95\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "5x+1y=14.94.............1
\n" ); document.write( "3x+2y=22.95............2
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "multiply (1)by -2
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply (2) by 1
\n" ); document.write( "-10x-2y= -29.88
\n" ); document.write( "3x+2y=22.95
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "Add the two equations
\n" ); document.write( "-7x+=-6.93
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "/-7
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "x=0.99
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "plug value of x in (1)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "5x+y=14.94
\n" ); document.write( "4.95+y=14.94
\n" ); document.write( "y=14.94 -4.95
\n" ); document.write( "y=9.99
\n" ); document.write( " y = 9.99
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
