Find the roots
p1=0,p2=1
Evaluate
(2p−2)(2p2)
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
(2p−2)(2p2)=0
Multiply the terms
(2p−2)×2p2=0
Multiply the terms
2p2(2p−2)=0
Elimination the left coefficient
p2(2p−2)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
p2=02p−2=0
The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0
p=02p−2=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
2p−2=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
2p=0+2
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
2p=2
Divide both sides
22p=22
Divide the numbers
p=22
