Solve by factoring:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"6x%5E2%2B10x%2B4+=+0\"$ First, factor out a 2.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2%283x%5E2%2B5x%2B2%29+=+0\"$ Now factor the parentheses.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%283x%2B2%29%28x%2B1%29+=+0\"$ Now apply the zero product principle.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3x%2B2+=+0\"$ , so $\"3x+=+-2\"$ ... $\"x+=+-2%2F3\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%2B1+=+0\"$ , so $\"x+=+-1\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The roots are:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+-2%2F3\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+-1\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
