5(x)+6=34 [solve for the x-term]
\n" ); document.write( "5x+6-6=34-6 [isolate the x-term]
\n" ); document.write( "5x=28
\n" ); document.write( "5x/5=28/5
\n" ); document.write( "x=28/5
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "check by plugging (x=28/5) back into the original equation:
\n" ); document.write( "5(28/5)+6=34
\n" ); document.write( "28+6=34
\n" ); document.write( "34=34 [checks out] \n" ); document.write( "
