IF \"x-5%3E=0\" then \"x-5=7-2x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3x-5=7\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3x=12\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=4\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If \"x-5%3C0\", then \"-x-%28-5%29=7-2x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2B5=7\" (I combined steps)
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=2\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x is 2 or 4.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
