Answer 2

Explanation:

Given that,

0 = 0.25x² - 8x

This is a quadratic equation, since it has the highest power of x to be 2.

0.25x² - 8x = 0

Simplify this by bring out x

x(0.25x - 8) = 0

So, if a × b = 0, it is either a = 0 or b = 0, if the multiplication of two number is 0, then it is either one of the number is 0 or both numbers is 0

So,

x(0.25x - 8) = 0

x = 0. OR. 0.25x - 8 = 0

x = 0. OR. 0.25x = 8

x = 0. OR. x = 8 / 0.25

x = 0. OR. x = 32.

So, the solution that describe the system is

0.25(0)² - 8(0)

OR

0.25(32²) - 8(32)
