: Solve each equation by graphing. If exact roots cannot be found, state the consecutive intergers between which the roots are located.
I started the problem off but im not quite sure if its right, please help on this problem
x^2-2x=0
x=2
y=0
& im having trouble with graphing This question is from textbook Algebra 2

+graph%28+500%2C+500%2C+-3%2C+6%2C+-2%2C+5%2C+x%5E2+-+2x%29+
The roots are at
(1) x+=+0 and
(2) x+=+2
One way you can show this is:
subtract 0 from both sides of (1)
subtract 2 from both sides of (2)
x=+0
x+-+2+=+0
If they both equal 0, the product is 0
x%2A%28x+-+2%29+=+0
x%5E2+-+2x+=+0
