\n" ); document.write( "Equation::
\n" ); document.write( "0.11*300 + 0.12x + 0.06(1300-x) = 0.09*1600
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "11*300 + 12x + 6*1300-6x = 9*1600
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "6x = 9*1600-11*300-6*1300
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "6x = 3300
