a = no. Abiodum's sweets
\n" ); document.write( "b = Taiwon's sweets
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Write an equation for each statement, use elimination here
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Abiodum and Taiwon share 735 sweets between them
\n" ); document.write( "a + t = 735
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( " so that Abiodum get 95 sweets more than Taiwon.
\n" ); document.write( "a = t + 95
\n" ); document.write( "or for elimination we can write it
\n" ); document.write( "a - t = 95
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( " Find how many sweets each get?
\n" ); document.write( "Use elimination with these two equations
\n" ); document.write( "a + t = 735
\n" ); document.write( "a - t = 95
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------adding eliminates t, find a
\n" ); document.write( "2a + 0 = 830
\n" ); document.write( "a = 830/2
\n" ); document.write( "a = 415 sweets
\n" ); document.write( "find t using the 2nd equation
\n" ); document.write( "t + 95 = 415
\n" ); document.write( "t = 415 - 95
\n" ); document.write( "t = 320 sweets
\n" ); document.write( ":
