You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You have:
\n" ); document.write( "\"3x%5E2-2x+%2B1+=+0\"
\n" ); document.write( "The best way to solve this is by usibng the qudratic solver \"x+=+%28-b+%2B-+sqrt%28+b%5E2-4%2Aa%2Ac+%29%29%2F%282%2Aa%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "where
\n" ); document.write( "a = the amount of \"x%5E2\" = 3
\n" ); document.write( "b = the amount of x = -2
\n" ); document.write( "c = the number on the end =
\n" ); document.write( "The Right hand side of the equals ign MUST be zero!!!
\n" ); document.write( "Now plug in the values for a, b and c:
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+%282+%2B-+sqrt%28+4-4%2A3%2A1+%29%29%2F%282%2A3%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+%282+%2B-+sqrt%28+4-12+%29%29%2F6+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+%282+%2B-+sqrt%28+-8+%29%29%2F6+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+%282+%2B-+2%2Asqrt%28+-2+%29%29%2F6+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+%282+%2B-+2i%2Asqrt%28+2+%29%29%2F6+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+1%2F3+%2B-+sqrt%28+2+%29%2F3%2Ai+\"
\n" ); document.write( "where \"i\" represents the imaginary number \"sqrt%28-1%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I hope this helps.
