You can put this solution on YOUR website!

\n" ); document.write( "When the equations are given in this form, elimination is (for me) by far the easiest way to go.


\n" );
document.write( "   6x - 3y =   5
\n" );
document.write( " -12x + 6y = -15\r
\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "Double the first equation to get an equation with \"12x\"; then adding the two equations will eliminate x:\r
\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "  12x - 6y =  10
\n" );
document.write( " -12x + 6y = -15
\n" );
document.write( " ---------------
\n" );
document.write( "         0 = -5\r
\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "That equation is FALSE; that means the system has 0 solutions.

document.write( " \n" );
