Article: Use your sewing machine to sew an even line 1/4 inch (6 mm) in from the raw edge of your chiffon. This line will give you a guide, making the hem easier to fold. It also eases the edge in a bit, making it tighter and easier to fold under later on. Consider increasing the thread tension by one place further than necessary for this basting line. Restore the setting to normal once this line is complete. Turn the raw edge in toward the wrong side of the material, folding it along the basting line. Press it in place with a hot iron. Holding the fabric somewhat taut along the basting line can help you fold the edge while pressing it in place. Move the iron up and down, rather than moving it side to side, to prevent the material from stretching or shifting as you press it. Use plenty of steam as you press the fold in place. Use your sewing machine to sew another line around the edge of the chiffon. This one should be 1/8 inch (3 mm) in from the folded edge. This line of stitches will act as another guide, making it easier to fold in the hem once more. Use sharp scissors to trim back the raw edge as close to the new sewing line you just created in the previous step. Make sure that you do not cut beneath or into the stitches as you complete this step. Turn the material in toward the wrong side again, just enough to fold the raw edge under. Press this fold in place with an iron. The second line of stitching you made should be folded in during this step. Your initial line of stitching will still be visible. Slowly stitch around the hem, working along the edge of your hemline, until you reach the end of the hem. You should have to visible lines of stitches from the back and one visible line from the front. You can either use a straight stitch or an edgestitch for this step. Do not back tack your hem in place. Leave enough thread at the beginning and end of the seam to knot it by hand. Iron the hem one last time to flatten it out as much as possible. This step completes the process.

Article: Grouping the polynomial into two sections will let you attack each section individually. Say we're working with the polynomial x3 + 3x2 - 6x - 18 = 0. Let's group it into (x3 + 3x2) and (- 6x - 18) Looking at (x3 + 3x2), we can see that x2 is common. Looking at (- 6x - 18), we can see that -6 is common. Factoring out x2 from the first section, we get x2(x + 3). Factoring out -6 from the second section, you'll get -6(x + 3). This gives you (x + 3)(x2 - 6). If you have an x2 in your roots, remember that both negative and positive numbers fulfill that equation. The solutions are -3, 6 and -6.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Group the polynomial into two sections. Find what's the common in each section. Factor the commonalities out of the two terms. If each of the two terms contains the same factor, you can combine the factors together. Find the solution by looking at the roots.
Article: Position the blade of the razor where the caulk meets the glass. Apply pressure to the razor and begin scraping off the caulk. Be careful when using the razor, so you don't scratch the glass or cut yourself. Set the hot air gun to a high heat setting and point the nozzle at the trouble area. After a few moments, test the area with the scraper to see if it has softened enough for you to continue. Scrape until the majority of the sealant is gone. If you don't have a hot air gun, a hair dryer on the highest setting will work just as well. Dip the sponge in the rubbing alcohol or mineral spirits and gently wipe the glass. If there are still large bits of caulk, try applying heat again and go back to scrapping. After all the sealant is removed, dip a cloth in rubbing alcohol to get rid of any cloudiness on the glass.

Use the razor to begin scraping the sealant off the glass surface. Apply heat with a hot air gun if the silicone does not come off easily with the razor. Remove any leftover sealant with the rubbing alcohol and sponge.
