\n" ); document.write( "Factor the last number:
\n" ); document.write( "18 = (2 x 9) or (3 x 6) or (18 x 1) [which factors add-up to 19?]
\n" ); document.write( "2+9=11 [doesn't work]
\n" ); document.write( "3+6=9 [doesn't work either]
\n" ); document.write( "18+1=19 [works]
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "So, 18 and 1 multiplied toegther equals (18) and when added together equals the middle term of (19.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "(p+18)(p+1) [use the FOIL method to muliply the factors and you will get your original answer]
