Add to Sides What: Add the same expression to the both sides of == . Why: Such side-wise addition is an essential computation for solving equations. Time to Complete: 3 hours. eq = (x -3 == 17*y - 9); lhs = eq.left + 9; rhs = eq.right + 9; eq2 = (lhs == rhs); show eq2; Output "eq2" → 6 + x == 17y © 2012-Present CCN Studios Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0
