DETAILED EXPLANATION


Look at 4%2Ax=highlight_red%28+15+%29-x.
Moved 15 to the right of expression
It becomes 4%2Ax=-x%2Bhighlight_green%28+15+%29.

Look at 4%2Ax=highlight_red%28+-x%2B15+%29.
Moved these terms to the left highlight_green%28+x+%29,highlight_green%28+-15+%29
It becomes 4%2Ax%2Bhighlight_green%28+x+%29-highlight_green%28+15+%29=0.

Look at highlight_red%28+4%2Ax+%29%2Bhighlight_red%28+x+%29-15=0.
Eliminated similar terms highlight_red%28+4%2Ax+%29,highlight_red%28+x+%29 replacing them with highlight_green%28+%284%2B1%29%2Ax+%29
It becomes highlight_green%28+%284%2B1%29%2Ax+%29-15=0.

Look at %28highlight_red%28+4+%29%2Bhighlight_red%28+1+%29%29%2Ax-15=0.
Added fractions or integers together
It becomes %28highlight_green%28+5+%29%29%2Ax-15=0.

Look at highlight_red%28+%28highlight_red%28+5+%29%29%2Ax+%29-15=0.
Remove unneeded parentheses around factor highlight_red%28+5+%29
It becomes highlight_green%28+5+%29%2Ax-15=0.

Look at highlight_red%28+5%2Ax-15+%29=0.
Solved linear equation highlight_red%28+5%2Ax-15=0+%29 equivalent to 5*x-15 =0
It becomes highlight_green%28+0+%29=0.
Result: 0=0
