\n" ); document.write( "Let \"+c+\" = cost of plans in cents
\n" ); document.write( "1st plan:
\n" ); document.write( "(1) \"+c+=+18t+\"
\n" ); document.write( "2nd plan:
\n" ); document.write( "(2) \"+c+=+8t+%2B+4995+\"
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Plug (1) into (2)
\n" ); document.write( "(2) \"+18t+=+8t+%2B+4995+\"
