Here is the original equation:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"p+=+2%2Aa%2Ak%5E2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The question is: find p when a = -1 and k = 3.
\n" ); document.write( "By substitution, we get
\n" ); document.write( " $\"p+=+2%2A%28-1%29%2A3%5E2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Apply order of operations and we get
\n" ); document.write( " $\"p+=+2%2A%28-1%29%2A9\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"p+=+-2%2A9\"$
\n" ); document.write( "P = -18. \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
