let s = no. sophomores
\n" ); document.write( "let j = no.of Juniors
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Write an equation for each statements:
\n" ); document.write( "\"There are 22 more sophomores than juniors in an 8AM algebra class.\"
\n" ); document.write( "s = j + 22
\n" ); document.write( "\"If there are 46 students in this class,\"
\n" ); document.write( "j + s = 46
\n" ); document.write( "From the 1st equation, replace s with (j+22)
\n" ); document.write( "j + (j+22) = 46
\n" ); document.write( "2j + 22 = 46
\n" ); document.write( "2j = 46 - 22
\n" ); document.write( "2j = 24
\n" ); document.write( "j = 24/2
\n" ); document.write( "j = 12 juniors
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "s = 12 + 22
\n" ); document.write( "s = 34 Sophomores
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Check this: 12 + 34 = 46\r
