Solve 5x^2+32x+12

Question

Factor the expression

(x + 6) (5 x + 2)

Evaluate

5 x^{2} + 32 x + 12

Rewrite the expression

5 x^{2} + (2 + 30) x + 12

Calculate

5 x^{2} + 2 x + 30 x + 12

Rewrite the expression

x \times 5 x + x \times 2 + 6 \times 5 x + 6 \times 2

Factor out x from the expression

x (5 x + 2) + 6 \times 5 x + 6 \times 2

Factor out 6 from the expression

x (5 x + 2) + 6 (5 x + 2)

Solution

(x + 6) (5 x + 2)

Show Solution

x_{1} = - 6, x_{2} = - \frac{2}{5}

Alternative Form

x_{1} = - 6, x_{2} = - 0.4

Evaluate

5 x^{2} + 32 x + 12

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

5 x^{2} + 32 x + 12 = 0

Evaluate

5 x^{2} + 32 x + 12

Rewrite the expression

5 x^{2} + (2 + 30) x + 12

Calculate

5 x^{2} + 2 x + 30 x + 12

Rewrite the expression

x \times 5 x + x \times 2 + 6 \times 5 x + 6 \times 2

Factor out x from the expression

x (5 x + 2) + 6 \times 5 x + 6 \times 2

Factor out 6 from the expression

x (5 x + 2) + 6 (5 x + 2)

Factor out 5 x + 2 from the expression

(x + 6) (5 x + 2)

(x + 6) (5 x + 2) = 0

When the product of factors equals 0,at least one factor is 0

x + 6 = 0 5 x + 2 = 0

Solve the equation for x

More Steps

Evaluate

x + 6 = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

x = 0 - 6

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

x = - 6

x = - 6 5 x + 2 = 0

Solve the equation for x

More Steps

Evaluate

5 x + 2 = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

5 x = 0 - 2

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

5 x = - 2

Divide both sides

\frac{5 x}{5} = \frac{- 2}{5}

Divide the numbers

x = \frac{- 2}{5}

Use \frac{- a}{b} = \frac{a}{- b} = - \frac{a}{b} to rewrite the fraction

x = - \frac{2}{5}

x = - 6 x = - \frac{2}{5}

Solution

x_{1} = - 6, x_{2} = - \frac{2}{5}

Alternative Form

x_{1} = - 6, x_{2} = - 0.4
