$\"y=%28-1%2F4%29x%2B3\"$ Use this to substitute for y.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2x%2By=-6\"$ Substitute for y from above.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2x%2B%28-1%2F4%29x%2B3=-6\"$ Subtract 3 from each side.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28-9%2F4%29x=-9\"$ Multiply each side by -4/9
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=4\"$ ANSWER 1: x=4
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=%28-1%2F4%29x%2B3\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=%28-1%2F4%29%284%29%2B3\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=-1%2B3\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=2\"$ ANSWER 2: y=2
