You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I'm assuming your equation is really,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"p%28x%29=-200x%5E2%2B8800x-94062\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"p%28x%29=-2%28100x%5E2-4400x%2B47031%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "You can factor,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"p%28x%29=-2%2810x-257%29%2810x-183%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "So when,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2%2810x-257%29%2810x-183%29=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Then,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"10x-257=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"10x=257\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=257%2F10\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Rounding up to 26.
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( " $\"10x-183=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"10x=183\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=183%2F10\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Rounding down to 18.
\n" ); document.write( ".
