Question 155386: I am struggling with Algebra and quadratic equations. I do not understand how to solve the following:
solve: 3x + x(x-2)= 0
find the x-incercepts of f(x)=3x + x(x-2).
The answer is 0, -1 as shown in my text but I do not undertand how to arrive at the intercepts, I get 3x + x^2 -2x = x^2 -x =0? This does not look like a quadratic formula. Answer by Earlsdon(6294) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve for x: Simplify the left side by factoring an x. Simplify. Apply the zero product rule: If a*b = 0, the either a =0, or b = 0, or both. or so
Solution:
