You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The first problem is a F OI L problem. First write it like this:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%282-3x%29%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%282-3x%29%282-3x%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+4+-+6x+-+6x+%2B+9x%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"4+-+12x+%2B+9x%5E2\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The second question, any time you need the y intercept, just let x = 0 and solve for y.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2x - 3y = 6\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2(0) - 3y = 6
\n" ); document.write( "-3y = 6 \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by -3:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%28-3y%29%2F%28-3%29+=+6%2F%28-3%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=+-2\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Sometimes this is written in (x,y) form (0,-2). Remember in this form, it's always in alphabetical order, with the x first, and the y second.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Good luck on your test!! Then again, it's NOT luck--it's PREPARATION!!!\r
