Given the equation: x3+x=0 transform Take common factor x from the equation we get: x(x2+1)=0 then: x1=0 and also we get the equation x2+1=0 This equation is of the form
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0
A quadratic equation can be solved using the discriminant. The roots of the quadratic equation: x2=2aD−b x3=2a−D−b where D = b^2 - 4*a*c - it is the discriminant. Because a=1 b=0 c=1 , then
D = b^2 - 4 * a * c =
(0)^2 - 4 * (1) * (1) = -4
Because D<0, then the equation has no real roots, but complex roots is exists.
x2 = (-b + sqrt(D)) / (2*a)
x3 = (-b - sqrt(D)) / (2*a)
or x2=i x3=−i The final answer for x^3 + x = 0: x1=0 x2=i x3=−i
