You can put this solution on YOUR website!
IF YOU ARE SOLVING FOR Y THENYOU SUBSTITUTE 2X FOR Y THUS
\n" ); document.write( "X+2X=12
\n" ); document.write( "3X=12
\n" ); document.write( "X=12/3
\n" ); document.write( "X=4 SOLUTION
\n" ); document.write( "NOWSOLVE FOR Y BY SUBSTITUTING 4 FOR X THUS
\n" ); document.write( "4+Y=12
\n" ); document.write( "Y=12-4
\n" ); document.write( "Y=8 SOLUTION
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF
\n" ); document.write( "X+Y=12
\n" ); document.write( "4+8=12
\n" ); document.write( "12=12\r
