$\"F=26%2BD\"$
\n" ); document.write( "In 4 years,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"F%2B4=2%2B5%28D%2B4%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"F%2B4=2%2B5D%2B20\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"F%2B4=5D%2B22\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"F=5D%2B18\"$
\n" ); document.write( "So then setting both equations equal to each other,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"26%2BD=5D%2B18\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4D=8\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"D=2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "So then,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"F=26%2B2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"F=28\"$
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
