\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28x-3%29%28x%2B2%29=0\"$ Factor.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x-3=0\"$ or $\"x%2B2=0\"$ Use the zero product property.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=3\"$ or $\"x=-2\"$ Isolate x in each case to get the two solutions. \n" ); document.write( "
