pls.help me solve the following quadratic equation by factoring:
\n" ); document.write( "

\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Multiply the  in front by the ,\r\n" );
document.write( "getting .  So we write down\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "as the only way to find two factors of .\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Next look at the sign of the last term  \r\n" );
document.write( "on the left.  It is  so beside \r\n" );
document.write( "we write the sum , and what it equals, :.  \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "   \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "We observe that the absolute\r\n" );
document.write( "value of the coefficient of the middle term on the left of\r\n" );
document.write( " is  so we replace the  by\r\n" );
document.write( ", so\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "   becomes\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Now place the  on the left of the  as\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Us the distributive property to multiply out \r\n" );
document.write( "as . So now we have:\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Out of the first two terms on the left ONLY, ,\r\n" );
document.write( "we can factor out , getting  \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Out of the last two terms on the left ONLY, ,\r\n" );
document.write( "we can factor out , getting .\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "[Notice when the first of the last two terms begins\r\n" );
document.write( "with a \"-\" sign, always take out a \"-\" term, which\r\n" );
document.write( "will invariably change the sign of the second term.]\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So we have\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Now we take out the parentheses  as a\r\n" );
document.write( "common factor and leave the  and the \r\n" );
document.write( "to put inside parentheses, like this:\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Noqw we use the zero-factor principle where we \r\n" );
document.write( "set each factor = 0:\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "  \r\n" );
document.write( "So the solution set is \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "That's just the first one.  If I have time I will come back\r\n" );
document.write( "and finish the rest.  So check this site later, for I will\r\n" );
document.write( "probably do some more.\r\n" );
