You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Since the only variable is r, this is not a system of equations and elimination is not required to solve them.

\n" ); document.write( "14r + 11r = 59 ---> 25r = 59 ---> r = 59/25.

\n" ); document.write( "11r + 14r = 41 ---> 25r = 41 ---> r= 41/25
\n" ); document.write( "
