Someone please answer 2x(3x-8) =

Answer :

Answer:

Simplifying

2x(3x + -8) = 0

Reorder the terms:

2x(-8 + 3x) = 0

(-8 * 2x + 3x * 2x) = 0

(-16x + 6x2) = 0

Solving

-16x + 6x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '2x'.

2x(-8 + 3x) = 0

Ignore the factor 2.

Subproblem 1

Set the factor 'x' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying

x = 0

Solving

x = 0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Simplifying

x = 0

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(-8 + 3x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying

-8 + 3x = 0

Solving

-8 + 3x = 0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '8' to each side of the equation.

-8 + 8 + 3x = 0 + 8

Combine like terms: -8 + 8 = 0

0 + 3x = 0 + 8

3x = 0 + 8

Combine like terms: 0 + 8 = 8

3x = 8

Divide each side by '3'.

x = 2.666666667

Simplifying

x = 2.666666667

Solution

x = {0, 2.666666667}

Step-by-step explanation:

if you simplify it, your answer would be 6x^2-16x
