\r\n" );
document.write( "Having this condition, you can IMMEDIATELY to conclude that 3 cases of juice cost 44 - 38 = 6 dollars.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So one case of juice costs 6/3 = 2 dollars.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "To make this conclusion, you do not need to solve the system of equation.\r\n" );
