Find the roots
x1=0,x2=34,x3=4
Alternative Form
x1=0,x2=1.3˙,x3=4
Evaluate
(2x3)(4−3x)×3(x−4)
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
(2x3)(4−3x)×3(x−4)=0
Multiply the terms
2x3(4−3x)×3(x−4)=0
Multiply the terms
6x3(4−3x)(x−4)=0
Elimination the left coefficient
x3(4−3x)(x−4)=0
Separate the equation into 3 possible cases
x3=04−3x=0x−4=0
The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0
x=04−3x=0x−4=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
4−3x=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−3x=0−4
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−3x=−4
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
3x=4
Divide both sides
33x=34
Divide the numbers
x=34
x=0x=34x−4=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
x−4=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
x=0+4
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
