You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If you want to factor $\"x%5E2-9\"$ , then use the difference of squares rule to get\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2-9+=+x%5E2+-+3%5E2+=+%28x-3%29%28x%2B3%29\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So $\"x%5E2-9\"$ factors to $\"%28x-3%29%28x%2B3%29\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
