You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If you say the roots are $\"r%5B1%5D\"$ and $\"r%5B2%5D\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28x+-+r%5B1%5D%29%2A%28x+-+r%5B2%5D%29+=+0\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2+-+%28r%5B1%5D+%2B+r%5B2%5D%29%2Ax+%2B+r%5B1%5D%2Ar%5B2%5D+=+0\"$
\n" ); document.write( "and, since
\n" ); document.write( " $\"ax%5E2+%2B+bx+%2B+c+=+0\"$
\n" ); document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "so
\n" ); document.write( " $\"c%2Fa+=+r%5B1%5D%2Ar%5B2%5D\"$
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
