\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"7x%2Bx%5E2-6x%2B9\" Distribute\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2%2Bx%2B9\" Combine like terms.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So \"7x%2Bx%28x-6%29%2B9=x%5E2%2Bx%2B9\"
