In a quadratic equation, once you have something that looks like this-
\n" ); document.write( "-9(plus/minus)(square root) 121. Do you (plus minus) the square root of the number or the actual number?
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "you add to get one value; then you subtract to get a second value
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "-9 +/-sqrt(121)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "-9+sqrt(121) = -9+11 = 2
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "-9-sqrt(121) = -9-11 = -20
