Solve 8x^2-2x-12x^3

Evaluate

8 x^{2} - 2 x - 12 x^{3}

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

8 x^{2} - 2 x - 12 x^{3} = 0

Factor the expression

2 x (4 x - 1 - 6 x^{2}) = 0

Divide both sides

x (4 x - 1 - 6 x^{2}) = 0

Separate the equation into 2 possible cases

x = 0 4 x - 1 - 6 x^{2} = 0

Solve the equation

More Steps

x = 0 x = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{6} i x = \frac{1}{3} - \frac{2}{6} i

Solution

x_{1} = \frac{1}{3} - \frac{2}{6} i, x_{2} = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{6} i, x_{3} = 0

Alternative Form

x_{1} \approx 0. \dot{3} - 0.235702 i, x_{2} \approx 0. \dot{3} + 0.235702 i, x_{3} = 0
