document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "1. Let's start with the equation itself:  2x-6=-10\r<BR>\n" );
document.write( "<BR>\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "2. To solve for x, first you have to isolate it. So you have to add 6 to the other side of the equation.\r<BR>\n" );

document.write( "2x=-10+6\r<BR>\n" );
document.write( "<BR>\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "3. Now the equation is:  2x=-4\r<BR>\n" );
document.write( "<BR>\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "4. To get x by itself, you have to divide the 2 on the other side of the equation.\r<BR>\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "x=-4/2\r<BR>\n" );
document.write( "<BR>\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
