$\"5x+-+2y+=+4\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+%2B+2y+=+8\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Add the equations
\n" ); document.write( " $\"6x+=+12\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+2\"$ answer
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute this in either equation
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2+%2B+2y+=+8\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2y+=+6\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y+=+3\"$ answer \n" ); document.write( "
