document.write( "-6(5X+2)=198 I was wondering if you could solve this for me and show your work so that I can learn how to do it. I am working with my 8th grade daughter and I wish I could show her how to do this. Maybe if I see how it is done I will be able to explain it to her. I've been working on this with her for an hour. Please Help! Thanks!<BR>\n" );
