\n" ); document.write( "L = G + 2
\n" ); document.write( "G+7 = 3(L-7)
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute for \"L\" and solve for \"G\":
\n" ); document.write( "G + 7 = 3(G+2-7)
\n" ); document.write( "G + 7 = 3G-15
\n" ); document.write( "2G = 22
\n" ); document.write( "G = 11 (Greg's age now)
