\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "First, let x = the number that we are trying to find. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Next, let's translate all of this into an equation. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"-1%2A%282x%2B3%29=2%28-4x-3%29\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now let's solve for x.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"-2x-3=-8x-6\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"-2x=-8x-3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"6x=-3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=-3%2F6\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=-1%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "================================================================================
\n" ); document.write( "Answer: \"x=-1%2F2\" OR \"x=-0.5\"
