You can put this solution on YOUR website!
\"xc+-+5+=+y\" Start with the given equation.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"xc=+y%2B5\" Add 5 to both sides.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x=+%28y%2B5%29%2Fc\" Divide both sides by 'c' to isolate 'x'.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the solution is \"x=+%28y%2B5%29%2Fc\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
