4 x + 1 y = -8 .............1
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "3x+3y=3
\n" ); document.write( "/3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "1 x + 1 y = 1 .............2
\n" ); document.write( "Eliminate y
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "multiply (1)by -1
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply (2) by 1
\n" ); document.write( "-4 x -1 y = 8
\n" ); document.write( "1 x + 1 y = 1
\n" ); document.write( "Add the two equations
\n" ); document.write( "-3 x = 9
\n" ); document.write( "/ -3
\n" ); document.write( "x = -3
\n" ); document.write( "plug value of x in (1)
\n" ); document.write( "4 x + 1 y = -8
\n" ); document.write( "-12 + y = -8
\n" ); document.write( " y = -8 + 12
\n" ); document.write( " y = 4
\n" ); document.write( " y = 4
\n" ); document.write( "x= -3
\n" ); document.write( "y= 4
