The product of the constant terms is \"18\".
\n" ); document.write( "A.\"%281%29%28-3%29%28-6%29=18\" possible choice
\n" ); document.write( "B.\"%281%29%28-2%29%289%29=-18\" not a possible choice
\n" ); document.write( "C.\"%28-1%29%28-3%29%28-6%29=-18\" not a possible choice
\n" ); document.write( "D.\"%28-1%29%28-2%29%289%29=18\" possible choice
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "A and D remain as possible choices.
\n" ); document.write( "From D, \"x=1\" would be a zero.
\n" ); document.write( "Checking the original polynomial,
\n" ); document.write( "\"1%5E3%2B6%281%29%5E2-25%281%29%2B18=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"1%2B6-25%2B18=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"25-25=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"0=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "True, so D is the correct factored form.
