simply \"-18%2F3=-6\"\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2+%2B+3x+-+18+=+0\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Because you have a quadratic with leading coefficient 1, you can factored it as \"%28x-a%29%28x+-+b%29\", and \"a\", \"b\" are the two roots.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%28x%5E2+-3%29+%2B+6%28x+-+3%29+=+0\"\r
