The title is misleading: You can't really copmpare mathjax to mathml as they are not comparable..At its core MathJax is based on MathML but it has three different input parsers, one of a latex-like syntax (that you were using) one for mathml synatx and one for asciimath syntax. Whichever syntax you used it is parsed into an internal mathml representation. then this representation is rendered by one of three output methids, depending on the mathjax configuration. It can use a html/css positioning, use the native mathml capability of teh browser or use the svg rendering of the browser.So comparing "mathjax" to "mathml" is like comparing "firefox" to "html".  One is an implemetation, one os a language.
