To find the values of x that make the equation equal to zero, we set each factor equal to zero and solve for x.
First, setting (16x-4) equal to zero:
16x - 4 = 0
Adding 4 to both sides:
16x = 4
Dividing by 16:
x = 4/16
Simplifying:
x = 1/4
Next, setting (7+x) equal to zero:
7 + x = 0
Subtracting 7 from both sides:
x = -7
Therefore, the values of x that make the equation equal to zero are x = 1/4 and x = -7.
Find the values of x that make the following equation equal zero:
(16x-4) (7+x)=0
