\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"500c%2B120p=2100\"
\n" ); document.write( "and

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Can you figure how to go from that?\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Multiply the cost equation by \"1%2F20\" and you have system:
