You can put this solution on YOUR website!
after factoring it you get
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2-9x%2B14=-6\"$
\n" ); document.write( "add 6 to both sides
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2-9x%2B20=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( "use the quadratic formula to solve
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-b%2B-sqrt%28+b%5E2-4ac+%29%2F2a\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"9%2B-sqrt%289%5E2-4%281%2A20%29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"9%2B-sqrt%2881-80%29+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"9%2B-sqrt%281%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "(9+or-1)/2
\n" ); document.write( "x=5 or 4 \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
