Please help me solve the following: factor the polynomial...x^2 − 2x − 6
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "Use the quadratic formula:
\n" ); document.write( "x = [-b+-sqrt(b^2-4ac)]/(2a)
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "Your Problem::
\n" ); document.write( "x = [2+- sqrt(4-4*1*-6)]/(2*1)
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "x = [2 +- sqrt(28)]/2
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "x = [2 +- 2sqrt(7)]/2
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "x = 1+-sqrt(7)
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
