Solve the system of equations algebraically.
\n" ); document.write( "y = x + 12
\n" ); document.write( "y = $\"1%2F2\"$ x
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "y = y, so we can write an equation:
\n" ); document.write( "x + 12 = $\"1%2F2\"$ x
\n" ); document.write( "x - $\"1%2F2\"$ x = -12
\n" ); document.write( " $\"1%2F2\"$ x = -12
\n" ); document.write( "multiply both sides by 2
\n" ); document.write( "x = -24
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "I'll let you find y, check your solutions in the original equation \n" ); document.write( "
