To solve this equation, we need to find the values of x that satisfy the equation:
(x^2 - 4)(x - 2) = 0
First, let's factor the expression:
(x^2 - 4) equals (x + 2)(x - 2)
So, the equation becomes:
(x + 2)(x - 2)(x - 2) = 0
Now we have two factors:
(x + 2) = 0
(x - 2) = 0
Solving for x:
x + 2 = 0
x = -2
x - 2 = 0
x = 2
Therefore, the solutions to the equation are x = -2 and x = 2.
(x^2-4)(x-2)=0
