Find the roots of the equation `3x^(2)+2x=0`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
To find the roots of the equation \(3x^2 + 2x = 0\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Factor the equation We start with the equation: \[ 3x^2 + 2x = 0 \] We can factor out \(x\) from both terms: \[ x(3x + 2) = 0 \] ### Step 2: Set each factor to zero Now, we set each factor equal to zero: 1. \(x = 0\) 2. \(3x + 2 = 0\) ### Step 3: Solve for \(x\) in the second equation Now, we solve the second equation: \[ 3x + 2 = 0 \] Subtract \(2\) from both sides: \[ 3x = -2 \] Now, divide by \(3\): \[ x = -\frac{2}{3} \] ### Conclusion The roots of the equation \(3x^2 + 2x = 0\) are: \[ x = 0 \quad \text{and} \quad x = -\frac{2}{3} \] ---
