You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Solve the system by addition.
\n" ); document.write( "Add the two equations and the y's are eliminated. Now you can solve for x.
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 4
\n" ); document.write( "x – y = 10
\n" ); document.write( "_____________
\n" ); document.write( "2x+0=14
\n" ); document.write( "2x=14
\n" ); document.write( "2x/2=14/2
\n" ); document.write( "x=7
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let x=7 in either equation and solve for y. I'm using the first one.
\n" ); document.write( "7+y=4
\n" ); document.write( "-7+7+y=4-7
\n" ); document.write( "y=-3
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "The solution is (x,y)=(7,-3)
