DETAILED EXPLANATION

\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"highlight_red%28+9%2Az+%29%2Bhighlight_red%28+z+%29-3=17\".
Eliminated similar terms \"highlight_red%28+9%2Az+%29\",\"highlight_red%28+z+%29\" replacing them with \"highlight_green%28+%289%2B1%29%2Az+%29\"
It becomes \"highlight_green%28+%289%2B1%29%2Az+%29-3=17\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"%28highlight_red%28+9+%29%2Bhighlight_red%28+1+%29%29%2Az-3=17\".
Added fractions or integers together
It becomes \"%28highlight_green%28+10+%29%29%2Az-3=17\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"highlight_red%28+%28highlight_red%28+10+%29%29%2Az+%29-3=17\".
Remove unneeded parentheses around factor \"highlight_red%28+10+%29\"
It becomes \"highlight_green%28+10+%29%2Az-3=17\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"10%2Az-3=highlight_red%28+17+%29\".
Moved these terms to the left \"highlight_green%28+-17+%29\"
It becomes \"10%2Az-3-highlight_green%28+17+%29=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"10%2Az-highlight_red%28+3+%29-highlight_red%28+17+%29=0\".
Added fractions or integers together
It becomes \"10%2Az%2Bhighlight_green%28+-20+%29=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"10%2Az%2Bhighlight_red%28+-20+%29=0\".
Removed extra sign in front of \"-20\"
It becomes \"10%2Az-highlight_green%28+20+%29=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"highlight_red%28+10%2Az-20+%29=0\".
Solved linear equation \"highlight_red%28+10%2Az-20=0+%29\" equivalent to 10*z-20 =0
It becomes \"highlight_green%28+0+%29=0\".
Result: \"0=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "This is an equation! Solutions: z=2.
