\n" ); document.write( " $\"%281%2B2B%29B=36\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2B%5E2%2BB-36=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28B-4%29%282B%2B9%29=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Two solutions:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"B-4=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"B=4\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Then,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"A%2A4=36\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"A=9\"$
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2B%2B9=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2B=-9\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"B=-9%2F2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Then,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"A%28-9%2F2%29=36\"$
