Solve:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E3%2B10x%5E2%2B26x+=+0\"$ Factor an x.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%28x%5E2%2B10x%2B26%29+=+0\"$ Apply the zero products principle.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+0\"$ and/or $\"x%5E2%2B10x%2B26+=+0\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Solve:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2%2B10x%2B26+=+0\"$ Solve using the quadratic formula: $\"x=%28-b%2B-sqrt%28b%5E2-4ac%29%29%2F2a\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=%28-10%2B-sqrt%2810%5E2-4%281%29%2826%29%29%29%2F2%281%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=%28-10%2B-sqrt%28100-104%29%29%2F2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=%28-10%2B-sqrt%28-4%29%29%2F2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=-5%2B-sqrt%28-1%29\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The roots are:
\n" ); document.write( "x = 0
\n" ); document.write( "x = -5+i or -(5-i)
\n" ); document.write( "x = -5-i or -(5+i) \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
