You can put this solution on YOUR website!
\"4%28x%2B9%29%5E2=24+\" divide both sides by 4
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x%2B9%29%5E2=6\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2%2B18x%2B81=6\" subract 6 from each side of the equal side
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2%2B18x%2B75=0\"
\n" ); document.write( " now you can use the quadratic formula to solve for x
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+%28-b+%2B-+sqrt%28+b%5E2-4%2Aa%2Ac+%29%29%2F%282%2Aa%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+%28-18+%2B-+sqrt%28+18%5E2-4%2A1%2A75+%29%29%2F%282%2A1%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+%28-18+%2B-+sqrt%28+324-300+%29%29%2F%282%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+%28-18+%2B-+sqrt%28+24+%29%29%2F%282%29+\" simplify sqrt(24)
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+%28-18+%2B-+2sqrt%28+6+%29%29%2F%282%29+\" divide everything by 2
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+%28-9+%2B-+sqrt%28+6+%29%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
