DETAILED EXPLANATION

\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"x-14=highlight_red%28+-46+%29\".
Moved these terms to the left \"highlight_green%28+46+%29\"
It becomes \"x-14%2Bhighlight_green%28+46+%29=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"x-highlight_red%28+14+%29%2Bhighlight_red%28+46+%29=0\".
Added fractions or integers together
It becomes \"x%2Bhighlight_green%28+32+%29=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"highlight_red%28+x%2B32+%29=0\".
Solved linear equation \"highlight_red%28+x%2B32=0+%29\" equivalent to x+32 =0
It becomes \"highlight_green%28+0+%29=0\".
Result: \"0=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "This is an equation! Solutions: x=-32.
