make this look much more normal like a regular 11th style with less steps

I don’t have the text you want changed — could you paste it here? I’ll rewrite it in a cleaner, 11th‑grade style with fewer steps.

Meanwhile, here are quick guidelines and a short before/after example so you’ll see what I mean.

Guidelines to make solutions look like a regular 11th‑grade writeup
- Show only the essential steps: combine trivial arithmetic, skip repeated intermediate lines (unless conceptually important).
- Use complete sentences for explanations and short math lines for calculations.
- Keep algebra orderly: line up equals signs, indicate the method (factor, substitute, quadratic formula).
- Box or label the final answer.
- If reasoning is needed, one clear sentence is enough (e.g., “Because the product is zero, one factor must be zero.”).

Example (long, step-by-step)
Solve 3x^2 − 12x − 15 = 0.

1. 3x^2 − 12x − 15 = 0
2. Divide both sides by 3: x^2 − 4x − 5 = 0
3. Use quadratic formula: x = [4 ± sqrt((-4)^2 − 4(1)(-5))]/(2·1)
4. = [4 ± sqrt(16 + 20)]/2
5. = [4 ± sqrt(36)]/2
6. = [4 ± 6]/2
7. x = (4 + 6)/2 = 10/2 = 5 or x = (4 − 6)/2 = −2/2 = −1
8. So x = 5 or x = −1.

Concise 11th‑grade style (fewer steps)
Solve 3x^2 − 12x − 15 = 0.
Divide by 3: x^2 − 4x − 5 = 0.
Apply the quadratic formula: x = [4 ± sqrt(16 + 20)]/2 = [4 ± 6]/2, so x = 5 or x = −1.
Answer: x = 5, −1.

If you paste your original text I’ll convert that exact content into a cleaner, shorter 11th‑grade style.
