Here is the original equation:
\n" ); document.write( "\"2x%5E2+%2B+3xy+-+4y%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "Let: x = 2 and y = -4
\n" ); document.write( "--
\n" ); document.write( "step 1: replace x with 2 and y with -4 to get
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%2A%282%29%5E2%2B3%282%29%28-4%29-4%2A%28-4%29%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "use order of operations to simplify:
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%2A4+%2B+3%28-8%29+-+4%2816%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"8+-+24+-+64\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"-16+-+64\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"-80\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
