3x^2 -6x = 24
\n" ); document.write( "3x^2 - 6x - 24 = 24 - 24
\n" ); document.write( "3x^2 - 6x - 24 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "(3x + 6)(x - 4) = 0\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "check:
\n" ); document.write( "3x^2 - 12x + 6x - 24 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "3x^2 - 6x - 24 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "3x^2 - 6x - 24 + 24 = 24
\n" ); document.write( "3x^2 - 6x = 24\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "solve for x:
\n" ); document.write( "3x + 6 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "3x + 6 - 6 = -6
\n" ); document.write( "3x = -6
\n" ); document.write( "3x/3 = -6/3
\n" ); document.write( "x = -2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x - 4 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "x - 4 + 4 = 4
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
