  • Graphical form: \"%28x-3%29%5E2=8%2A%28y%2B2%29\" simplifies to \"%28x-3%29%5E2-8%2Ay-16=0\"
  • Text form: (x-3)^2=8*(y+2) simplifies to (x-3)^2-8*y-16=0
  • Cartoon (animation) form: \"simplify_cartoon%28+%28x-3%29%5E2=8%2A%28y%2B2%29+%29\"
    For tutors: simplify_cartoon( (x-3)^2=8*(y+2) )

DETAILED EXPLANATION

\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"%28x-3%29%5E2=highlight_red%28+8%2A%28y%2B2%29+%29\".
Moved these terms to the left \"highlight_green%28+-8%2A%28y%2B2%29+%29\"
It becomes \"%28x-3%29%5E2-highlight_green%28+8%2A%28y%2B2%29+%29=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"%28x-3%29%5E2-highlight_red%28+8%2A%28y%2B2%29+%29=0\".
Expanded term \"-8\" by using associative property on \"%28y%2B2%29\"
It becomes \"%28x-3%29%5E2-highlight_green%28+8%2Ay+%29-highlight_green%28+8%2A2+%29=0\".
\n" ); document.write( "
Look at \"%28x-3%29%5E2-8%2Ay-highlight_red%28+8+%29%2Ahighlight_red%28+2+%29=0\".
Multiplied numerator integers
It becomes \"%28x-3%29%5E2-8%2Ay-highlight_green%28+16+%29=0\".
Result: \"%28x-3%29%5E2-8%2Ay-16=0\"
