You can put this solution on YOUR website!
6x+y=46 .............1
\n" ); document.write( "6x-y=38 .............2
\n" ); document.write( "Eliminate y
\n" ); document.write( "6 x y = 46
\n" ); document.write( "6 x - y = 38
\n" ); document.write( "Add the two equations
\n" ); document.write( "12 x = 84
\n" ); document.write( "/ 12
\n" ); document.write( "x = 7
\n" ); document.write( "plug value of x in (1)
\n" ); document.write( "6 x + 1 y = 46
\n" ); document.write( "42 + 1 y = 46
\n" ); document.write( " 1 y = 46 + -42
\n" ); document.write( " 1 y = 4
\n" ); document.write( " y = 4
\n" ); document.write( "(7,4) is the solution
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
