x=3/2 x=-1\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "+(1-4x) +8 =13
\n" ); document.write( "+(1-4x) =5
\n" ); document.write( "-4x=4
\n" ); document.write( "x=-4/4
\n" ); document.write( "x=-1
\n" ); document.write( "-(1-4x) +8 =13
\n" ); document.write( "-(1-4x) =5
\n" ); document.write( "4x-1=5
\n" ); document.write( "4x=6
\n" ); document.write( "x=6/4
\n" ); document.write( "x=3/2
