x sold for 6
\n" ); document.write( "y sold for 8
\n" ); document.write( "x+y = 14 subtract x from both sides:
\n" ); document.write( "y = 14-x
\n" ); document.write( "Next:
\n" ); document.write( "6x+8y = 92 substitute for y
\n" ); document.write( "6x+8(14-x) = 92
\n" ); document.write( "Distributive property of multiplication:
\n" ); document.write( "6x+112-8x = 92
\n" ); document.write( "-2x = -20
\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by -2, and remember -/- = +
\n" ); document.write( "x = 10
\n" ); document.write( "y = 14-x = 4
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Check:
\n" ); document.write( "(10*6)+(4*8) = 92 Correct
