\"2x%2By=1\" (1)
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=y%2B8\" (2)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "There are many ways to solve this. I will do substitution method as Equation (2) is already solved for a variable. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Substituing Equation (2) into Equation (1) we get:
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%28y%2B8%29%2By=1\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2y%2B16%2By=1\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"16%2B3y=1\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"16%2B3y-16=1-16\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3y=-15\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3y%2F3=-15%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=5\" (3) \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now we substitute (3) back into (2) to find x.
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=5%2B8\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=13\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So we end up with the point (x,y)=(13,5) as a solution to our system of equations.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
