\n" );
document.write( "Let x and y represent the number that will fit in a van and car respectively
\n" );
document.write( "Question states***
\n" );
document.write( " 3x + y = 22
\n" );
document.write( " 2x + 4y = 28      |Solve this system of Equations to find x and y\r
\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( " -12x - 4y = -88
\n" );
document.write( "  2x + 4y  = 28  
\n" );
document.write( "   -10x = -60
\n" );
document.write( "      x = 6, the number that will fit in a van.      
\n" );
document.write( "CHECKING our answer*** y = 4 will fit in a car     |Using 3x + y = 22  
\n" );
document.write( "Using  2x + 4y = 28   
\n" );
document.write( "     8 + 24 = 28
