Assume that Student 2 completed 'x' homework questions. \n" ); document.write( "So, Student 1 completed (6x+2) homework questions.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Together, they solved 51 questions. \n" ); document.write( "So, x+(6x+2)=51 \n" ); document.write( " 7x+2=51 \n" ); document.write( " 7x=51-2 \n" ); document.write( " 7x=49 \n" ); document.write( " x=49/7 \n" ); document.write( " x=7 \n" ); document.write( "So, Student 2 completed 7 questions. \n" ); document.write( " Student 1 completed (6x+2)= {(6*7)+2} \n" ); document.write( " =42+2 \n" ); document.write( " =44 questions. \n" ); document.write( " |
