\"3y-x=2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3y%2Bx=16\"
\n" ); document.write( "Add the two equations together,
\n" ); document.write( "\"3y-x%2B3y%2Bx=2%2B16\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"6y=18\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28y=3%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Then use either equation to solve for \"x\".
\n" ); document.write( "\"3%283%29%2Bx=16\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"9%2Bx=16\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28x=7%29\"
