You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I'll do part a) to get you started\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x=1\" or \"x=-2\" Start with the given solutions.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x-1=0\" or \"x%2B2=0\" Get everything to one side so that only 0 remains on the right side (for both equations).\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x-1%29%28x%2B2%29=0\" Use the zero product property to combine the equations.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2%2Bx-2=0\" FOIL out the left side.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the answer is \"x%5E2%2Bx-2=0\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To check your work, simply solve \"x%5E2%2Bx-2=0\" for x. \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Doing so will show you that the solutions are \"x=1\" or \"x=-2\", which confirms the answer.\r
