You need to get all x terms on one side, everything else on the other side.
\n" ); document.write( "Do this using the additive inverse.
\n" ); document.write( "\"a%2B%28-a%29=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "Here's your equation.
\n" ); document.write( "\"2x-4=x%2B2\"
\n" ); document.write( "Let's bring all of the x terms to the left side.
\n" ); document.write( "Everything else on the right hand side.
\n" ); document.write( "To get rid of x on the right side, add the additive inverse of x or (-x).
\n" ); document.write( "Remember whatever you do to one side of the equation, you must do to the other.
\n" ); document.write( "\"2x%2Bhighlight%28-x%29-4=x%2Bhighlight%28-x%29%2B2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%282x-x%29-4=%28x-x%29%2B2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x-4=2\"
\n" ); document.write( "To get rid of the (-4) on the left side, use the additive inverse of (-4).
\n" ); document.write( "-(-4) is the same as 4.
\n" ); document.write( "Add 4 to both sides of the equation.
\n" ); document.write( "\"x-4%2B4=2%2B4\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28x=6%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Always check your answer.
\n" ); document.write( "\"2x-4=x%2B2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%286%29-4=%286%29%2B2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"12-4=8\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"8=8\"
\n" ); document.write( "Your answer led to a true statement.
\n" ); document.write( "It's a good answer.
