Establish equations
\n" ); document.write( "x+y = 90
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2y - 30
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute the x = into the first equation
\n" ); document.write( "2y - 30 + y = 90
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "solve for y
\n" ); document.write( "3y - 30 = 90
\n" ); document.write( "3y = 90 + 30
\n" ); document.write( "3y = 120
\n" ); document.write( "y = 40
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute y into either equation and solve for x
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2(40) - 30 = 80 - 30 = 50
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "Solution
\n" ); document.write( "x = 50, y = 40
\n" ); document.write( "(50,40)
