1. $\"y-2x=170\"$
\n" ); document.write( "2. $\"y=12x\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute eq. 2 into eq. 1,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"12x-2x=170\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"10x=170\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=17\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Then use either equation to solve for $\"y\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=12%2817%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=204\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
