You can put this solution on YOUR website!
$\"2x%5E2%2B4x-6\"$
\n" ); document.write( "To factor this, you have to first think about what are the factors of 2x^2.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2x%2Ax\"$ will work for that. Then, you have to think of the factors of 6
\n" ); document.write( "that when one of which is multiplied by 2 and added together with the other,
\n" ); document.write( "it will combine to 4 (that is the 4x term).\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The answer thus is:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%282x%2B6%29%28x-1%29\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Multiply this out to prove to yourself that it gives you back the original equation.\r
