THIS IS FOR SUBSTITUTION EQUATION. ITS\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " E1) X+3Y=-4
\n" ); document.write( "E2) Y+X=0
\n" ); document.write( "Solve E2 for y and substitute that into E1 and solve for x
\n" ); document.write( "y+x=0
\n" ); document.write( "y+x-x=0-x
\n" ); document.write( "y=-x
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "x+3(-x)=-4
\n" ); document.write( "x-3x=-4
\n" ); document.write( "-2x=-4
\n" ); document.write( "-2x/-2=-4/-2
\n" ); document.write( "x=2
\n" ); document.write( "Now substitute that into E2 and solve for y
\n" ); document.write( "y+2=0
\n" ); document.write( "y+2-2=0-2
\n" ); document.write( "y=-2
\n" ); document.write( "The solution: (x,y)=(2,-2)
\n" ); document.write( "Happy Calculating!!!
