DETAILED EXPLANATION

\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"-5%2Aa%2B3=highlight_red%28+2%2Aa%2B10+%29\".
Moved these terms to the left \"highlight_green%28+-2%2Aa+%29\",\"highlight_green%28+-10+%29\"
It becomes \"-5%2Aa%2B3-highlight_green%28+2%2Aa+%29-highlight_green%28+10+%29=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"-5%2Aa%2Bhighlight_red%28+3+%29-2%2Aa-highlight_red%28+10+%29=0\".
Added fractions or integers together
It becomes \"-5%2Aa%2Bhighlight_green%28+-7+%29-2%2Aa=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"-5%2Aa%2Bhighlight_red%28+-7+%29-2%2Aa=0\".
Moved \"-7\" to the right of expression
It becomes \"-5%2Aa-2%2Aa%2Bhighlight_green%28+-7+%29=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"-5%2Aa-2%2Aa%2Bhighlight_red%28+-7+%29=0\".
Removed extra sign in front of \"-7\"
It becomes \"-5%2Aa-2%2Aa-highlight_green%28+7+%29=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"-highlight_red%28+5%2Aa+%29-highlight_red%28+2%2Aa+%29-7=0\".
Eliminated similar terms \"highlight_red%28+-5%2Aa+%29\",\"highlight_red%28+-2%2Aa+%29\" replacing them with \"highlight_green%28+%28-5-2%29%2Aa+%29\"
It becomes \"highlight_green%28+%28-5-2%29%2Aa+%29-7=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"%28-highlight_red%28+5+%29-highlight_red%28+2+%29%29%2Aa-7=0\".
Added fractions or integers together
It becomes \"%28highlight_green%28+-7+%29%29%2Aa-7=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"%28highlight_red%28+-7+%29%29%2Aa-7=0\".
Removed extra sign in front of \"-7\"
It becomes \"%28-highlight_green%28+7+%29%29%2Aa-7=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"highlight_red%28+%28-highlight_red%28+7+%29%29%2Aa+%29-7=0\".
Remove unneeded parentheses around factor \"highlight_red%28+7+%29\"
It becomes \"-highlight_green%28+7+%29%2Aa-7=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"highlight_red%28+-7%2Aa-7+%29=0\".
Solved linear equation \"highlight_red%28+-7%2Aa-7=0+%29\" equivalent to -7*a-7 =0
It becomes \"highlight_green%28+0+%29=0\".
Result: \"0=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "This is an equation! Solutions: a=-1.
