I'm not sure about the punctuation, but if I understand your words correctly, the equation is:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "1/2n-6=1\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "using reverse order of operations, add six to both sides of the equation:
\n" ); document.write( "1/2n-6+6=1+6
\n" ); document.write( "1/2n=7\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "using the multiplication property of equality, multiply both sides of the equation times two:
\n" ); document.write( "2(1/2)n=2(7)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "simplify:
\n" ); document.write( "n=14\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "check answer by substituting 14 for n in the original equation:
\n" ); document.write( "1/2(14)-6=1
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
