Question
Solve the equation
x1=0,x2=475−5609,x3=475+5609
Alternative Form
x1=0,x2≈0.026686,x3≈37.473314
Evaluate
16x=600x2−16x3
Move the expression to the left side
16x−(600x2−16x3)=0
If a negative sign or a subtraction symbol appears outside parentheses, remove the parentheses and change the sign of every term within the parentheses
16x−600x2+16x3=0
Factor the expression
8x(2−75x+2x2)=0
Divide both sides
x(2−75x+2x2)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x=02−75x+2x2=0
