Well...you got it almost right!
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+4y-6\"$ Add 6 to both sides.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%2B6+=+4y\"$ Now divide both sides by 4.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%2F4%2B6%2F4+=+y\"$ Simplify.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y+=+%281%2F4%29x+%2B+3%2F2\"$ or, if you like the decimals.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y+=+0.25x+%2B+1.5\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
