Factor out GCF 9 in eq (ii). You should get x - y = 0 ----- eq (iii)
\n" );
document.write( "You can then multiply eq (iii) by 8, and then ADD to eq (i) to eliminate y and solve for x
\n" );
document.write( "Substitute value of x into any of the 2 ORIGINAL equations to get value of y.
\n" );
document.write( "OR
\n" );
document.write( "Solve eq (iii) in terms of x and then substitute that value into eq (i) to solve for the value of y
\n" );
document.write( "Substitute value of y into any of the 2 ORIGINAL equations to get value of x. \n" );
document.write( "

\n" );
