1. \"10%2Ax%2B2y=7\"
\n" ); document.write( "2. \"y=-5%2Ax%2B3\"
\n" ); document.write( "Use equation (2) and substitute into (1):
\n" ); document.write( "2.\"y=-5%2Ax%2B3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%2Ay=2%2A%28-5%2Ax%2B3%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%2Ay=2%2A%28-5%2Ax%29%2B2%2A3\" Distributive property.
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%2Ay=-10%2Ax%2B6\" Simplify.
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%2Ay%2B10%2Ax=cross%28-10%2Ax%29%2Bcross%2810%2Ax%29%2B6\" Additive inverse of (-10*x).\"2%2Ay%2B10%2Ax=6\" Simplify.
\n" ); document.write( "\"cross%282%2Ay%29-cross%282%2Ay%29%2B10%2Ax=6-2%2Ay\"Additive inverse of (2*y).
\n" ); document.write( "\"10%2Ax=6-2%2Ay\"Simplify.
\n" ); document.write( "Use this results in equation (1).
\n" ); document.write( "1. \"10%2Ax%2B2y=7\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"6-cross%282%2Ay%29%2Bcross%282y%29=7\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"6=7\"
\n" ); document.write( "Since the equations lead to a false statement, they are inconsistent.

\n" ); document.write( "Looking at the graphs of both equations, you see that they have the same slope (parallel) and different intercepts. They will never meet (i.e. have a solution).
\n" ); document.write( "
