You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x = number of granite tickets
\n" ); document.write( "y = number of limestone tickets
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 750
\n" ); document.write( "8x + 4.50y = 5300
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "put the system of linear equations into standard form
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 750
\n" ); document.write( "8x + 4.50y = 5300
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:

\n" ); document.write( "x = 550
\n" ); document.write( "y = 200
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "now by elimination:
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "(x + y = 750)*(-4.50)
\n" ); document.write( "8x + 4.50y = 5300
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "-4.50x - 4.50y = 750*(-4.50)
\n" ); document.write( "8x + 4.50y = 5300
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "add the two above equations:
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "8x + -4.50x = 5300 + 750*(-4.50)
\n" ); document.write( "(8 - 4.50)x = 5300 + 750*(-4.50)
\n" ); document.write( "x = ( 5300 + 750*(-4.50) ) / (8 - 4.50)
\n" ); document.write( "( 5300 + 750*(-4.50) ) / (8 - 4.50)
