\n" ); document.write( "10x^2=4x+7 ... 10x^2-4x-7=0\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "completing the square - step-by-step ... for ax^2+bx+c=0\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "1) by dividing or multiplying, set the coefficient of the squared term equal to one ... x^2+(b/a)x+(c/a)=0\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2) by adding or subtracting, set the constant term (c/a) equal to zero ... x^2+(b/a)x=-(c/a)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3) add the square of one half of the x coefficient to both sides ... x^2+(b/a)x+(b/(2a))^2=-(c/a)+(b/(2a))^2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "4) take the square root of both sides ... \"x%2B%28b%2F%282a%29%29=sqrt%28%28b%5E2-4ac%29%2F%284a%5E2%29%29\" , realizing the root is positive AND negative\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x-(1/5)=\"sqrt%2874%29%2F10\" ... (c) is the answer
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
