document.write( "Identify the solution (s) of the system of equation, if any:\r\n" );
document.write( "-6x-2y=18\r\n" );
document.write( "2y=-6x-18\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "SOLUTION:\r\n" );
document.write( "Rearrange the second equation.\r\n" );
document.write( "2y=-6x-18 --> 6x + 2y = -18\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Multiply each term in the first equation by -1.\r\n" );
document.write( "-6x-2y=18 --> 6x + 2y = -18\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "We see that the equations are equivalent (i.e. On the coordinate grid, they are the same line.)\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "This is called a dependent, consistent system and it has infinitely many solutions (all the points on the \r\n" );
