Simplify
More Steps

Evaluate
x×2×3−x
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
2x×3−x
The product of roots with the same index is equal to the root of the product
2x(3−x)
Calculate the product
More Steps

Evaluate
2x(3−x)
Apply the distributive property
2x×3−2x×x
Multiply the numbers
6x−2x×x
Multiply the terms
6x−2x2
6x−2x2
6x−2x2=3
Raise both sides of the equation to the 2-th power to eliminate the isolated 2-th root
(6x−2x2)2=32
Evaluate the power
6x−2x2=9
Move the expression to the left side
6x−2x2−9=0
Rewrite in standard form
−2x2+6x−9=0
Multiply both sides
2x2−6x+9=0
Substitute a=2,b=−6 and c=9 into the quadratic formula x=2a−b±b2−4ac
x=2×26±(−6)2−4×2×9
