distribute the 3 over the elements in the parenthesis:
\n" ); document.write( "3(11x+y) = 33x+3y
\n" ); document.write( "Now we have:
\n" ); document.write( "33x+3y > 23x+15 subtract 23x from both sides:
\n" ); document.write( "10x+3y = 15 subtract 3y from both sides to isolate the x on the left:
\n" ); document.write( "10x = -3y+15 divide both sides by 10
\n" ); document.write( "x = (-3y/10)+15/10 simplify, 15 and 10 are both divisible by 5:
\n" ); document.write( "x = (-3y/10)+3/2 \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
