You can put this solution on YOUR website!
100x - 4000/100x = .3
\n" ); document.write( "=> (100x*100x - 4000)/100x = 3/10
\n" ); document.write( "=> 10000x^2 -4000 = 30x
\n" ); document.write( "1000x^2 -400 = 3x
\n" ); document.write( "1000x^2 -3x - 400 =0\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now u can find the roots of the equation by using the formulae
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"%28-b%2B-sqrt%28b%2Ab-4%2Aa%2Ac%29%2F%282%2Aa%29%29\"
