\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "x*(x+1) = x + (x+1) + 41
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2+%2B+x+=+2x+%2B+42\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2+-+x+-+42+=+0\"$
\n" ); document.write( "(x-7)*(x+6) = 0
\n" ); document.write( "x = 7 --> 7 and 8
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "x = -6 --> -6 and -5
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
