You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The first thing you have to do is combine like terms:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%2F2%29x%2B5-4=6\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%2F2%29x+%2B+1+=+6\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Next you want to get x by itself by subtracting 1 on both sides:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%2F2%29x+%2B+1+=+6\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%2F2%29x+=+5\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Finally, do the opposite of 1/2 by multiplying 2 on both sides:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%2F2%29x+=+5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28x+=+10%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
