Do you mean (A) 2x·2 − 16x or (B) 2x^2 − 16x? I’ll show both.
A) 2x·2 − 16x
- Simplify: 4x − 16x = −12x
- Factored: −12x (or x(−12))
B) 2x^2 − 16x
- Factor out common factor 2x: 2x(x − 8)
- If you set it equal to 0: 2x(x − 8) = 0 ⇒ x = 0 or x = 8
Tell me which interpretation you intended or what you want done with the expression (simplify, factor, solve, etc.).
