3x+7=7x+15
\n" ); document.write( "3x-7x=15-7
\n" ); document.write( "-4x=8
\n" ); document.write( "x=8/-4
\n" ); document.write( "x=-2 now substitute -2 for x in the middle equation
\n" ); document.write( "-2^2+k=7*-2+15
\n" ); document.write( "4+k=-14+15
\n" ); document.write( "k=-14+15-4
\n" ); document.write( "k=-3 answer.
\n" ); document.write( "proof
\n" ); document.write( "3*-2+7= -2^2-3
\n" ); document.write( "-6+7=4-3
\n" ); document.write( "1=1
\n" ); document.write( "
