Question
Solve the equation
x=0
Evaluate
x2×2x=−2x
Multiply
More Steps

Evaluate
x2×2x
Multiply the terms with the same base by adding their exponents
x2+1×2
Add the numbers
x3×2
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
2x3
2x3=−2x
Add or subtract both sides
2x3−(−2x)=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
2x3+2x=0
Factor the expression
2x(x2+1)=0
Divide both sides
x(x2+1)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x=0x2+1=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
x2+1=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
x2=0−1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
x2=−1
