Answer by adamchapman(301) About Me  (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
2x%5E2+%2B+12x+=+-18
x%5E2+%2B+6x+=+-9
x%5E2+%2B+6x+%2B9+=+0
%28x%2B3%29%5E2=0
so x=-3
I hope this helps
P.S. I am trying to start up my own homework help website. I would be extremely grateful if you would e-mail me some feedback on the help you received to adam.chapman@student.manchester.ac.uk
