\n" ); document.write( "x^2/2 = 2x + 16
\n" ); document.write( "(1/2)x^2 - 2x - 16 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "0.5x^2 - 2x - 16 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "the above quadratic equation is in standard form, with a=0.5, b=-2, and c=-16
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "to solve the quadratic equation, by using the quadratic formula, copy and paste this:
