Which of the following is not a member of the solution set
for the equation 2x(3x - 1)(2x - 2)(x - 3) = 0? A.) 3 B.) 2 C.) 1 D.) 1/3 E.) 0
Whenever two or more terms are multiplied together to equal zero, then any of them could be equal to zero based on the zero product property. To find all the possible solutions for x, set each term equal to 0.
2x(3x - 1)(2x - 2)(x - 3) = 0 2x = 0 or 3x - 1 = 0 or 2x - 2 = 0 or x - 3 = 0 {set each factor equal to zero} x = 0 or x = 1/3 or x = 1 or x = 3 {solved each equation for x} The one that is not a solution is B.) 2 Ask Algebra House Comments are closed.
