3. x = z/2
\n" ); document.write( "****************************************
\n" ); document.write( "the second equation becomes
\n" ); document.write( "z/2 + y = z
\n" ); document.write( "y = z/2
\n" ); document.write( "***************************************
\n" ); document.write( "the first equation becomes
\n" ); document.write( "z/2 + z/2 + z = 90
\n" ); document.write( "2z = 90
\n" ); document.write( "z = 45
\n" ); document.write( "x = 22.5 and y = 22.5
\n" ); document.write( "***************************************
\n" ); document.write( "equation 1
\n" ); document.write( "22.5 + 22.5 + 45 = 90
\n" ); document.write( "90 = 90
\n" ); document.write( "************************************
\n" ); document.write( "equation 2
\n" ); document.write( "22.5 + 22.5 = 45
\n" ); document.write( "45 = 45
\n" ); document.write( "*************************************
\n" ); document.write( "equation 3
\n" ); document.write( "22.5 = 45/2
\n" ); document.write( "22.5 = 22.5
