\r\n" );
document.write( "2x - 3y = -24,   (1)\r\n" );
document.write( " x + 6y =  18.   (2)\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "From (2), express x = 18 - 6y and substitute it into (1). You will get a single equation for y\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "2*(18-6y) - 3y = -24.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Simplify and solve it.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "From this point please complete your assignment yourself.\r\n" );
