\n" ); document.write( "

 ------ eq (i)
\n" );
document.write( "y = 2 + x -------- Solving 2nd equation for y ------ eq (ii)
\n" );
document.write( "1) Substitute 2 + x for y in eq (i)
\n" );
document.write( "2) Combine all like-terms and solve equation for x
\n" );
document.write( "3) Substitute value for x in eq (ii) to obtain value for y \n" );
