Call the ages of John and Jude, j and d. Then we write
\n" ); document.write( "j = 5 + 6d and
\n" ); document.write( "j + d = 33
\n" ); document.write( "Now substitute the first one into the second...we get
\n" ); document.write( "(5+6d) + d = 33
\n" ); document.write( "5 + 7d = 33
\n" ); document.write( "7d = 28
\n" ); document.write( "d = 4 (Jude)
\n" ); document.write( "which means
\n" ); document.write( "j = 29 (John)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
