1. $\"x%2By=5\"$
\n" ); document.write( "2. $\"2x%2By=6\"$
\n" ); document.write( "From eq. 1,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=5-x\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute into eq. 2,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2x%2B5-x=6\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=1\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Then,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=5-1\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=4\"$
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
