\n" ); document.write( "Gina has $2+3x\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "EQUATION:
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28%282%2B3x-5%29%29%2F2=x%2B5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3x-3=2x%2B10\"
\n" ); document.write( "x=13
\n" ); document.write( "2(13)+2=41
\n" ); document.write( "Hence, Gina had $41 at first
