Show Solution

Find the roots
m1=−32,m2=0
Alternative Form
m1=−0.6˙,m2=0
Evaluate
−18m2−12m
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
−18m2−12m=0
Factor the expression

Evaluate
−18m2−12m
Rewrite the expression
−6m×3m−6m×2
Factor out −6m from the expression
−6m(3m+2)
−6m(3m+2)=0
When the product of factors equals 0,at least one factor is 0
−6m=03m+2=0
Solve the equation for m
More Steps

Evaluate
−6m=0
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
6m=0
Rewrite the expression
m=0
m=03m+2=0
Solve the equation for m
More Steps

Evaluate
3m+2=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
3m=0−2
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
3m=−2
Divide both sides
33m=3−2
Divide the numbers
m=3−2
Use b−a=−ba=−ba to rewrite the fraction
m=−32
m=0m=−32
Solution
m1=−32,m2=0
