\"3x%5E2+%2B+9xy+%2B+4x+%2B+12y\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%283x%5E2+%2B+9xy%29+%2B+%284x+%2B+12y%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"3x%28x+%2B+3y%29+%2B+%284x+%2B+12y%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"3x%28x+%2B+3y%29+%2B+4%28x+%2B+3y%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%283x%2B4%29%28x+%2B+3y%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So \"3x%5E2+%2B+9xy+%2B+4x+%2B+12y\" completely factors to \"%283x%2B4%29%28x+%2B+3y%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "In other words, \"3x%5E2+%2B+9xy+%2B+4x+%2B+12y=%283x%2B4%29%28x+%2B+3y%29\" for all values of x and y
