Let the cost of each pair of shoes be x.
\n" ); document.write( "Then the cost of a jacket is 3x.
\n" ); document.write( "We have 2(3x)+3x=1026
\n" ); document.write( "9x=1026
\n" ); document.write( "x=114.
\n" ); document.write( "The cost of 15 such jackets is 15*3*114=$5130
\n" ); document.write( "
