Here is the original equation
\n" ); document.write( "(i) $\"3-4%28x-2%29=3%283-x%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "step 1 - distribute on both sides to get
\n" ); document.write( "(ii) $\"3-4x%2B8+=+9-3x\"$
\n" ); document.write( "combine like terms to get
\n" ); document.write( "(iii) $\"-4x+%2B+11+=+9+-+3x\"$
\n" ); document.write( "add 4x to both sides to get
\n" ); document.write( "(iv) $\"11+=+9+%2B+x\"$
\n" ); document.write( "subtract 9 to get
\n" ); document.write( "(v) $\"2+=+x\"$
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
