Algebra.Com's Answer #29243 by fractalier(6550) You can put this solution on YOUR website! Okay, from \n" ); document.write( "x^3 - x = 0 \n" ); document.write( "we factor out x first and then factor what is left... \n" ); document.write( "x(x^2 - 1) = 0 \n" ); document.write( "x(x + 1)(x - 1) = 0 \n" ); document.write( "so that \n" ); document.write( "x = 0, x = 1, and x = -1 \n" ); document.write( " |
