Solve (2x-1)(x+1)

Evaluate

(2 x - 1) (x + 1)

To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0

(2 x - 1) (x + 1) = 0

Separate the equation into 2 possible cases

2 x - 1 = 0 x + 1 = 0

Solve the equation

More Steps

x = \frac{1}{2} x + 1 = 0

Solve the equation

More Steps

x = \frac{1}{2} x = - 1

Solution

x_{1} = - 1, x_{2} = \frac{1}{2}

Alternative Form

x_{1} = - 1, x_{2} = 0.5

(2x 1)(x+1)
