You can put this solution on YOUR website!
\"4x-x-1=19\" You have one little 'oops' right here. It should be \"4x-%28x-1%29=19\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3x-1=19\" That makes this look like: \"3x%2B1=19\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3x=20\" So \"3x=18\"
\n" ); document.write( "x=6 and 2/3, So \"x=6\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You also need to substitute your newly found value for x back into one of the original equations to solve for y.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y=x-1\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=6-1=5\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the point of intersection of the two lines is (6,5)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
