You can put this solution on YOUR website! factor each polynomial completely. The equation is 4x^2-12x+9 = 0
Start by factoring the 4 and the 9, so we have:
(2x__3)(2x__3) = 0
the middle term is neg and the last term is positive, therefore
(2x-3)(2x-3)
FOIL this and confirm that you get the original equation
