\n" ); document.write( "x = 5y
\n" ); document.write( "x - y = 356
\n" ); document.write( "---------
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute for \"x\" and solve for \"y\":
\n" ); document.write( "5y-y = 356
\n" ); document.write( "4y = 356
\n" ); document.write( "y = 89
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"x\":
\n" ); document.write( "x = 5*89 = 445
