William,

As far as I know, if you use Jaws Screen reader; their is a special
ELOQ.SBL File which will enable you to read some algebraic expressions
using Jaws. that is if you use it;

As for your other questions; i'm not sure, but maybe someone on the
list can answer those for you?

Regards,

Tolga.
