You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Notice that each term has a common factor of 6.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Then you can factor it in this way \"6%28x%5E2%2B2x%2B1%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "From there factor the quadratic you are presented: \"x%5E2%2B2x%2B1\" Since 1*1 =1 and 1+1 =2, then we can factor this into \"%28x%2B1%29%28x%2B1%29+=+%28x%2B1%29%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "Then the total factorization is : \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%286%28x%2B1%29%5E2%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
