To solve this problem, we need to determine the value of x, which represents the amount of beef in pounds that John ordered.
We know that John ordered twice as much chicken as beef. Therefore, he ordered 2x pounds of chicken.
The total cost of the order is $14000.
We can set up the equation as follows:
Cost of beef + Cost of chicken = Total cost of the order
x * $8 + 2x * $3 = $14000
Let's simplify and solve for x:
8x + 6x = $14000
14x = $14000
To isolate x, we divide both sides of the equation by 14:
14x / 14 = $14000 / 14
x = $1000
The value of x is $1000.
#### 1000
The answer is: 1000
