Assuming solve
\n" ); document.write( "x+2y=8
\n" ); document.write( "2x+y=35, multiply top by -2
\n" ); document.write( "-2x-4y=-16
\n" ); document.write( "2x+y=35
\n" ); document.write( "-3y=19
\n" ); document.write( "y=-19/3
\n" ); document.write( "x-38/3=8
\n" ); document.write( "x=62/3
\n" ); document.write( "check in the second equation
\n" ); document.write( "2(62/3)-19/3=105/3=35
\n" ); document.write( "(20 2/3, -19/3) \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
