x+y=25...................1
\n" ); document.write( "2x=3y
\n" ); document.write( "2x-3y=0..................2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Eliminate y
\n" ); document.write( "multiply (1)by 3
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply (2) by 1
\n" ); document.write( "3 x + 3 y = 75
\n" ); document.write( "2 x + -3 y = 0
\n" ); document.write( "Add the two equations
\n" ); document.write( "5 x = 75
\n" ); document.write( "/ 5
\n" ); document.write( "x = 15
\n" ); document.write( "plug value of x in (1)
\n" ); document.write( "1 x + 1 y = 25
\n" ); document.write( "15 + 1 y = 25
\n" ); document.write( " 1 y = 25-15
\n" ); document.write( " 1 y = 10
