Answers
Answer:
Rearrange:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
x^2-(11*x-18)=0

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
1.1 Factoring x2-11x+18
The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, -11x its coefficient is -11 .
The last term, "the constant", is +18
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • 18 = 18
Step-2 : Find two factors of 18 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -11 .
-18 + -1 = -19
-9 + -2 = -11 That's it
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -9 and -2
x2 - 9x - 2x - 18
Equation at end of step 1:
(x - 2) • (x - 9) = 0

Theory - Roots of a product
2.1 A product of several terms equals zero.
When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.
We shall now solve each term = 0 separately
In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product
Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.
Solving a Single Variable Equation:
2.2 Solve : x-2 = 0
Add 2 to both sides of the equation :
x = 2
Solving a Single Variable Equation:
2.3 Solve : x-9 = 0
Add 9 to both sides of the equation :
x = 9
