document.write( "First equation is\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    A - 20 = C + 20.      (1)\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Second equation is\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );

document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "To solve, subtract equation (1) from equation (2).  You will get\r\n" );

document.write( "Thus, Carla has 106 dollars;  Angela has A = C + 20 + 20 = 146 dollars.    ANSWER\r\n" );
