You can put this solution on YOUR website!
4x(x-2)-5x(x-1)=2
\n" ); document.write( "4x^2-8x-5x^2+5x = 2
\n" ); document.write( "-x^2-3x=2
\n" ); document.write( "x^2+3x+2 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "(x+2)(x+1) = 0
\n" ); document.write( "x = -2 or x = -1
\n" ); document.write( "====================
