\n" ); document.write( "Let \"x\" be # of 6, \"y\" the # of 12, and \"z\" be # of 24 blade packages.
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "x+y+z = 12 packages
\n" ); document.write( "6x+12y+24z = 162 blades
\n" ); document.write( "2x+3y+4z = 35
\n" ); document.write( "=====================================\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Using the TI-83 Matrix function I find:
\n" ); document.write( "x = 5
\n" ); document.write( "y = 3
\n" ); document.write( "z = 4
