factor the polynomial by grouping
\n" ); document.write( "4x^3 - 4x^2 - 9x + 9
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Factor out 4x^2
\n" ); document.write( "4x^2(x - 1) - 9x + 9
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Factor out 9
\n" ); document.write( "4x^2(x - 1) - 9(x - 1)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Factor out (x-1)
\n" ); document.write( "(x - 1) (4x^2 - 9)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Note that 4x^2 - 9 is the difference of squares
\n" ); document.write( "(x - 1) (2x - 3) (2x + 3)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
