\n" ); document.write( "In which year will the cornelius institute have more enrolled students than the Plato institute?
\n" ); document.write( "Cornelius:: c(x) = 957+15x
\n" ); document.write( "Plato:::::: p(x) = 1200-12x
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Solve: c(x) > p(x)
\n" ); document.write( "957+15x > 1200-12x
