document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The other person is WRONG!! The solution set is NOT \"+x=-8%2B-+2%2Asqrt%287%29\".\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Correct x-values are 2 and - 18, of which - 18 should be IGNORED, since it's an EXTRANEOUS solution!!\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Equation to be solved: \"x%5E2+%2B+16x+-+36+=+0\", which factors to (x - 2)(x + 18) = 0\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "You can do the check to CONFIRM!
