You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You have two equations and two unknowns.
\n" ); document.write( "It should be solvable.
\n" ); document.write( "Use one equation and substitute into the other equation.
\n" ); document.write( "\"C=a%2Bb%28C%2BI%2BG%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"C=a%2BbC%2BbI%2BbG\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"C-bC=a%2BbI%2BbG\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"C%281-b%29=a%2Bb%28I%2BG%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"C=%28a%2Bb%28I%2BG%29%29%2F%281-b%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Then,
\n" ); document.write( "\"Y=%28a%2Bb%28I%2BG%29%29%2F%281-b%29%2BI%2BG\"
