Solve: Find a number that is 96 greater than its opposite.
\n" ); document.write( "x=the number
\n" ); document.write( "-x=opposite
\n" ); document.write( "x=96+-x
\n" ); document.write( "Is this right so far?
\n" ); document.write( "Yes, just continue
\n" ); document.write( "x + x = 96
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 96
\n" ); document.write( "x = 96/2
\n" ); document.write( "x = 48
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Prove this
\n" ); document.write( "48 - (-48) =
\n" ); document.write( "48 + 48 = 96
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
