Answer by Edwin McCravy(20063)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Solve this equation for :


Write  in the first term as   



Use the identity  with 
to replace the first term:



Factor out  on the left:



Set each factor on the left = 0



Notice that the coefficient of x is 2.
Since we want all values x in the interval
, we must find all values for 
2x in the interval 



So there are 8 solutions.
