Solve one of the equations for either variable; substitute the expression for this variable into the other equation. Solve for the variable in this equation. Use the result or the value to solve for the other variable.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Example, find x from your first equation:
\n" ); document.write( "3x-4y=10
\n" ); document.write( "3x=10+4y
\n" ); document.write( "x=10/3+4y/3
\n" ); document.write( "-
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute into second equation:
\n" ); document.write( "2y=2(10/3+4y/3)-6
\n" ); document.write( "y=(10/3+4y/3)-3
\n" ); document.write( "3y=10+4y-1, after dividing by three
\n" ); document.write( "0=10-1+y
\n" ); document.write( "-9=y
\n" ); document.write( "-
\n" ); document.write( "Use the value of y to find value of x:
\n" ); document.write( "x=10/3+4(-9)/3
\n" ); document.write( "x=(10-36)/3
\n" ); document.write( "x=-26/3
\n" ); document.write( "-
\n" ); document.write( "-
\n" ); document.write( "ANSWER: x=-26/3 and y=-9 \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
