You can put this solution on YOUR website!
My equation is:
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let a number be x, usually the word \"is\" in these problems means equal
\n" ); document.write( "The phase \"at least\" means equal or greater than (=>)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Five plus(+) a number is(=) at least(>) 16
\n" ); document.write( "5 + x => 16
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "subtract 5 from both sides:
\n" ); document.write( "5 - 5 + x => 16 - 5
\n" ); document.write( "x => 11
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Check our solution, substitute 11 for x:
\n" ); document.write( "5 + 11 = 16
\n" ); document.write( "If x is greater than (>) say 12:
\n" ); document.write( "5 + 12 > 16,........17 is greater than 16 is a true statement, right?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Did this give you a clue or two to this stuff??\r
