\n" ); document.write( "2 x + -1 y = 10 .............2
\n" ); document.write( "Add the two equations

\n" ); document.write( "/ 3
\n" ); document.write( "x = 20
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "plug value of x in (1)
\n" ); document.write( "1 x + 1 y = 50
\n" ); document.write( "20 + 1 y = 50
\n" ); document.write( " 1 y = 50 -20
\n" ); document.write( " 1 y = 30
\n" ); document.write( " y = 30
\n" ); document.write( "
