\n" ); document.write( "Work on the equation to get all the x terms on the left side, everything else on the right.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"8x%2B12=44%2B4x\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract $\"4x\"$ from both sides.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%288x-4x%29%2B12=44%2B%284x-4x%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4x%2B12=44%2B0\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4x%2B12=44\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract $\"12\"$ from both sides.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4x%2B12-12=44-12\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4x%2B0=32\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4x=32\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by $\"4\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4x%2F4=32%2F4\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%284%2F4%29x=8\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"1x=8\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28x=8%29\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
