document.write( "You have a total $50 to spend on cold cuts for a party. Ham costs $5.00 per pound and turkey costs $4.00 per pound.
\n" );
document.write( "Define the variables.
\n" );
document.write( "x = the number of pounds of turkey ,  y = the number of pounds of ham
\n" );
document.write( "Write an equation in standard form.
\n" );
document.write( "4x + 5y = $50
\n" );
document.write( "Determine the x- and y- intercepts. Show work.
\n" );
document.write( "x-intercept (y = 0) x = 12.5lb,  y-intercept (x  = 0) y = 10lb
\n" );
document.write( "Interpret the x- and y- intercepts in the context of the problem.
\n" );
document.write( "1) Can feed more people, the more turkey that is purchased with the budget.
