x = larger integer
\n" ); document.write( "y = smaller integer\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 25
\n" ); document.write( "2x - 1 = 4y + 1\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Rearranging the first equation, we get x = 25 - y. We can substitute this into the second equation.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2x - 1 = 4y + 1
\n" ); document.write( "2(25 - y) - 1 = 4y + 1
\n" ); document.write( "50 - 2y - 1 = 4y + 1
\n" ); document.write( "48 = 6y
\n" ); document.write( "8 = y\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The integers are 17 and 8.
