1. $\"C%2BE=65\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Ten years ago,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"C-10=2%28E-10%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"C-10=2E-20\"$
\n" ); document.write( "2. $\"C-2E=-10\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract eq. 2 from eq. 1,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"C%2BE-C%2B2E=65-%28-10%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3E=75\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for E then use either equation to solve for C.\r
