1st: 2x+3y=-29
\n" ); document.write( "2nd: x+4y=-32\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Multiply 2nd by 2 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "3rd: 2x+8y=-64
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 3rd from 1st to get:
\n" ); document.write( "-5y=35
\n" ); document.write( "y=-7
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute into 2nd to solve for \"x\", as follows:
\n" ); document.write( "x+4(-7)=-32
\n" ); document.write( "x-28=-32
\n" ); document.write( "x=-4
\n" ); document.write( "Check in 1st:
\n" ); document.write( "2(-4)+3(-7)=-29
\n" ); document.write( "-8-21=-29
\n" ); document.write( "It checks.
