Does (3x+4)(x-4)=0 Have Two Solutions?

β€œ(3x+4)(x-4)=0”
True, two solutions
Confidence: High Checked on May 28, 2026

Summary

The equation \((3x+4)(x-4)=0\) is satisfied when either factor equals zero. Solving \(3x+4=0\) gives \(x=-\frac{4}{3}\); solving \(x-4=0\) gives \(x=4\). No other real values satisfy the equation.

    For each real number \(x\), \(\dfrac{1}{x(1 - x)} \ge 4\). When a statement is false, it is sometimes possible to add an assumption that will yield a true statement. This is usually done by using a conditional statement. So instead of working with the statement in (3), we will work with a related statement that is obtained by adding an assumption (or assumptions) to the hypothesis. For each real number \(x\), if \(0 < x < 1\), then \(\dfrac{1}{x(1 - x)} \ge 4\).
