document.write( "be in.  The other tutor found one form of the equation, but that\r\n" );
document.write( "is probably not the one listed on your homework. So what that tutor\r\n" );
document.write( "did is not going to help you.  Since you did not list the equations,\r\n" );
document.write( "we cannot tell. But here is what you are to do:\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "For each listed equation, substitute x=4 and y=3 into that equation\r\n" );
document.write( "and simplify.  If you get an identity, such as 3=3, then substitute \r\n" );
document.write( "x=8 and y=4 into that same equation.  If you get an identity BOTH \r\n" );
document.write( "times, then that is an equation of a line that passes through BOTH \r\n" );
document.write( "points. But if you get a contradiction either or both times, such as \r\n" );
document.write( "2=3, then you can eliminate that answer.\r\n" );
