To solve the quadratic equation 6x² + 24x = 0, we can start by factoring out the common term from both parts of the equation.
We can factor out 6x, which gives us:
6x(x + 4) = 0
Now, we set each factor equal to zero:
- 6x = 0
- x + 4 = 0
From the first equation (6x = 0), we divide both sides by 6:
x = 0
From the second equation (x + 4 = 0), we subtract 4 from both sides:
x = -4
The solutions to the quadratic equation 6x² + 24x = 0 are x = 0 and x = -4.
