\"A%2BB=58\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"A-B=16\"
\n" ); document.write( "From the second equation,
\n" ); document.write( "\"A=B%2B16\"
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute into the first.
\n" ); document.write( "\"B%2B16%2BB=58\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2B=42\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"B=21\"
\n" ); document.write( "Then,
