DETAILED EXPLANATION

Look at highlight_red%28+20.6+%29%2B2.1%2Ax=-8.2x.
Moved 20.6 to the right of expression
It becomes 2.1%2Ax%2Bhighlight_green%28+20.6+%29=-8.2x.
Look at 2.1%2Ax%2B20.6=highlight_red%28+-8.2%2Ax+%29.
Moved these terms to the left highlight_green%28+8.2%2Ax+%29
It becomes 2.1%2Ax%2B20.6%2Bhighlight_green%28+8.2%2Ax+%29=0.
Look at 2.1%2Ax%2Bhighlight_red%28+20.6+%29%2B8.2%2Ax=0.
Moved 20.6 to the right of expression
It becomes 2.1%2Ax%2B8.2%2Ax%2Bhighlight_green%28+20.6+%29=0.
Look at highlight_red%28+2.1%2Ax+%29%2Bhighlight_red%28+8.2%2Ax+%29%2B20.6=0.
Eliminated similar terms highlight_red%28+2.1%2Ax+%29,highlight_red%28+8.2%2Ax+%29 replacing them with highlight_green%28+%282.1%2B8.2%29%2Ax+%29
It becomes highlight_green%28+%282.1%2B8.2%29%2Ax+%29%2B20.6=0.
Look at %28highlight_red%28+2.1+%29%2Bhighlight_red%28+8.2+%29%29%2Ax%2B20.6=0.
Added fractions or integers together
It becomes %28highlight_green%28+103%2F10+%29%29%2Ax%2B20.6=0.
Look at highlight_red%28+%28highlight_red%28+103%2F10+%29%29%2Ax+%29%2B20.6=0.
Remove unneeded parentheses around factor highlight_red%28+103+%29,highlight_red%28+1%2F10+%29
It becomes highlight_green%28+103+%29%2Fhighlight_green%28+10+%29%2Ax%2B20.6=0.
Look at highlight_red%28+103%2F10%2Ax%2B20.6+%29=0.
Solved linear equation highlight_red%28+103%2F10%2Ax%2B20.6=0+%29 equivalent to 10.3*x+20.6 =0
It becomes highlight_green%28+0+%29=0.
Result: 0=0
This is an equation! Solutions: x=-2.
