Too much white space after a MathJax display environment
If you create an exercise, and include a display MathJax environment, you may have noticed that you get too much white space. For example:
Note that if we multiple
\[ \frac{x}{2}=2 \]
by two, we get
\[ x=4 \]
This will look like this for the student (note the extra break after the equation):
You can solve this by pressing shift+enter (instead of enter) after a display equation. In the editor this will look like there is more space, but the student will not get the extra line break.
