Solved by pluggable solver: SOLVE linear system by SUBSTITUTION
Solve:
\n" ); document.write( " \"+system%28+%0D%0A++++4%5Cc+%2B+3%5Cd+=+108%2C%0D%0A++++3%5Cc+%2B+1%5Cd+=+56+%29%0D%0A++\"We'll use substitution. After moving 3*d to the right, we get:
\n" ); document.write( " \"4%2Ac+=+108+-+3%2Ad\", or \"c+=+108%2F4+-+3%2Ad%2F4\". Substitute that
\n" ); document.write( " into another equation:
\n" ); document.write( " \"3%2A%28108%2F4+-+3%2Ad%2F4%29+%2B+1%5Cd+=+56\" and simplify: So, we know that d=20. Since \"c+=+108%2F4+-+3%2Ad%2F4\", c=12.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " Answer: \"system%28+c=12%2C+d=20+%29\".
