$\"X%5E3-11x%5E2%2B18x=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Begin by factoring out what is common among all three terms (which is an x):
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%28x%5E2-11x%2B18%29=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Then, factor the polynomial within the parenthesis:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%28x-9%29%28x%2B2%29=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Finally, set each term on the left to zero to find the solution for x:
\n" ); document.write( "x = {-2,0,9} \n" ); document.write( "
