The sum of two numbers is 32. One of the numbers is 4 less than 5 times the other. Find the numbers
\n" ); document.write( "But I have to use a system of equations in two variable
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Equations:
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 32
\n" ); document.write( "x = 5y-4
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 32
\n" ); document.write( "x - 5y= -4
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract and solve for \"y\"::
\n" ); document.write( "6y = 36
\n" ); document.write( "y = 6
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"x\"::
\n" ); document.write( "x = 5y-4
\n" ); document.write( "x = 5*6-4 = 26
