Question

2x cube minus x square minus x

Answer 1

Answer:

I am assuming you have given an equation and you want the roots.

$2x^3-x^2-x=0$, dividing by x on both sides

$2x^2-x-1=0$, splitting the middle term we get

$2x^2-2x+x-1=0$

$2x(x-1)+1(x-1)=0$

$(2x+1)(x-1)=0$

2x+1 = 0 OR x - 1 = 0

Hence, the values of x are $\frac{-1}2$ or 1
