Solve 16x^(3)-4x^(2)

Evaluate

16 x^{3} - 4 x^{2}

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

16 x^{3} - 4 x^{2} = 0

Factor the expression

4 x^{2} (4 x - 1) = 0

Divide both sides

x^{2} (4 x - 1) = 0

Separate the equation into 2 possible cases

x^{2} = 0 4 x - 1 = 0

The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0

x = 0 4 x - 1 = 0

Solve the equation

More Steps

x = 0 x = \frac{1}{4}

Solution

x_{1} = 0, x_{2} = \frac{1}{4}

Alternative Form

x_{1} = 0, x_{2} = 0.25
