I think this would prevent the rapid frequency of questions asked as sometimes it is just a overload of questions. So by this idea everyone every1 could their answer accurately in less amount of time. This is what i think is the purpose of Openstudy!

This is the opposite of the purpose of OpenStudy. Your intentions may be good but an automatic equation solver would stimulate cheating in tests. The purpose of OpenStudy is that users guide people with questions to the answer. So they have to solve the equation themselves with the help of tutors. An equation solver would replace both the tasks of the student and the helper and just gives the answer without explanation.
