You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2x^3-x^2-18x+9=0
----
I graphed it and found one zero at x = 1/2
---------
1/2)....2....-1....-18....9
.........2.....0.....-18..|..0
====================================
Quotient: 2x^2-18
---
Solve 2x^2-18 = 0
2(x^2-9)=0
(x-3)(x+3) = 0
x = 3 or x = -3
=========================
Solutions: x = 1/2, x = 3, x = -3
=====================================
