\n" ); document.write( "-(x + 7) = -6x + 8, \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "-x - 7 = -6x + 8 -----> move the therm with x from the right side to the left with the opposite sign.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " Move the constant term -7 from the left to the right with the opposite sign.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "-x + 6x = 8 + 7,\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "5x = 15,\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x = $\"15%2F5\"$ = 3.\r
