\n" ); document.write( "\"9x%2B6y=90\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3x%2B2y=30\"

\n" ); document.write( "x and y are positive integers, so 2y is an even number; and 30 is an even number.

\n" ); document.write( "That means 3x must be an even number; and that means x is a (positive) even integer.

\n" ); document.write( "Find the solutions by enumeration.

\n" ); document.write( "x=2: 6+2y=30; 2y=24; y=12 (x,y)=(2,12)
\n" ); document.write( "x=4: 12+2y=30; 2y=18; y=9 (x,y)=(4,9)
\n" ); document.write( "x=6: 18+2y=30; 2y=12; y=6 (x,y)=(6,6)
\n" ); document.write( "x=8: 24+2y=30; 2y=6; y=3 (x,y)=(8,3)

\n" ); document.write( "Higher values of x will yield zero or negative values of y, so that list of 4 solutions is the complete list.
