1. $\"-3x%2By=-2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "2. $\"y=x%2B6\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute eq. 2 directly into eq. 1,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-3x%2Bx%2B6=-2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2x%2B6=-2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2x=-8\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=4\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Then from eq. 2,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=4%2B6\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=10\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
