You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The solution by the other tutor is WRONG!!\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "4x^2 = 13x +12\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "4x^2 - 13x -12=0
\n" ); document.write( "(4x +3)(x-4) = 0\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The first solution is:
\n" ); document.write( "4x= -3
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=+-3%2F4\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The second solution is
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=4\"\r
