Solve:
\n" ); document.write( "\"sqrt%282w%2B15%29+=+w\" Is this correct? It would be helpful if you were to use parentheses in you problem statement thus: sqrt of (2w+15) = 15, otherwise, it could be interpreted as: sqrt of 2w + 15 = w --->\"sqrt%282w%29%2B15+=+w\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"sqrt%282w%2B15%29+=+w\" Square both sides.
\n" ); document.write( "\"2w%2B15+=+w%5E2\" Rewrite this as:
\n" ); document.write( "\"w%5E2-2w-15+=+0\" Solve by factoring.
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28w%2B3%29%28w-5%29+=+0\" Apply the zero product rule.
\n" ); document.write( "\"w%2B3+=+0\" or \"w-5+=+0\" so that...
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28w+=+-3%29\" or \"highlight%28w+=+5%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
