different ways to factor the given equation\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "4 x^3 = 12 x^2+11 x+2
\n" ); document.write( "4 x^3 = (3 x+2) (4 x+1)
\n" ); document.write( "(2 x+1)(2 x^2-7 x-2) = 0
\n" ); document.write( "the resulting graph looks a lot like a distorted sine wave near the origin then splits off one end up to the right the other first quadrant end down to the left 3 quadrant barley makes it into the second quadrant and takes dip into the 4th quadrant.
