18x+2.37(3-x)=3*14.25
\n" ); document.write( "18x+7.11-2.37x=42.75
\n" ); document.write( "15.63x=42.75-7.11
\n" ); document.write( "15.63x=35.64
\n" ); document.write( "x=35.64/15.63
\n" ); document.write( "x=2.28 pounds of the $18 coffee is used.
\n" ); document.write( "3=2.28=.72 pounds of the $2.37 coffee is used.
\n" ); document.write( "Proof:
\n" ); document.write( "18*2.28+2.37*.72=3*14.25
\n" ); document.write( "41.04+1.7=42.75
\n" ); document.write( "42.75~42.75
\n" ); document.write( "She purchased 2.28 pounds of Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee.
\n" ); document.write( "She purchased .72 pounds of Regular Coffee.
