You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The equation is (x+5)^2-16=0
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "If you want to solve for x by factoring:
\n" ); document.write( "It's a difference of 2 squares, (x+5)^2 and 4^2
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28x%2B5%29%5E2-16=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28%28x%2B5%29%2B4%29%2A%28%28x%2B5%29-4%29=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( "(x+9)*(x+1) = 0
\n" ); document.write( "x = -9
\n" ); document.write( "x = -1
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
