\n" ); document.write( "y = x + 2
\n" ); document.write( "xx + 3y = 34
\n" ); document.write( "xx + 3(x + 2) = 34
\n" ); document.write( "xx + 3x + 6 = 34
\n" ); document.write( "xx + 3x - 28 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "the above quadratic equation is in standard form, with a=1, b=3, and c=-28
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "to solve the quadratic equation, by using the quadratic formula, copy and paste this:
