is this your problem?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x+4=3x
\n" ); document.write( "first move all terms with x to one side of the equation
\n" ); document.write( "this is done by subtracting x from both sides
\n" ); document.write( "x-x+4=3x-x
\n" ); document.write( "0+4=2x
\n" ); document.write( "4=2x
\n" ); document.write( "now divide both sides by 2
\n" ); document.write( "4/2=2x/2
\n" ); document.write( "2=x
\n" ); document.write( "now check the answer in the original equation
\n" ); document.write( "x+4=3x
\n" ); document.write( "2+4=(3)(2)
\n" ); document.write( "6=6
\n" ); document.write( "So the answer is x=2
\n" ); document.write( "
