200X+130Y=81.60 MULTIPLY BY -1.1 & ADD.
\n" ); document.write( "220X+200Y=96.60
\n" ); document.write( "-220X-143Y=-89.76
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "57Y=6.84
\n" ); document.write( "Y=6.84/57
\n" ); document.write( "Y=$.12 PER UNIT OF GAS.
\n" ); document.write( "200X+130*.12=81.60
\n" ); document.write( "200X+15.6=81.60
\n" ); document.write( "200X=81.60-15.6
\n" ); document.write( "200X=66
\n" ); document.write( "C=66/200
\n" ); document.write( "X=$.33 PER UNIT OF ELECTRICITY.
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF:
\n" ); document.write( "220*.33+200*.12=96.60
\n" ); document.write( "72.60+24=96.60
\n" ); document.write( "96.60=96.60
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
