Find the Roots (Zeros) 9x(x+8)

$9 x (x + 8)$

Set $9 x (x + 8)$ equal to $0$ .

$9 x (x + 8) = 0$

Solve for $x$ .

If any individual factor on the left side of the equation is equal to $0$ , the entire expression will be equal to $0$ .

$x = 0$

$x + 8 = 0$

Set $x$ equal to $0$ .

$x = 0$

Set $x + 8$ equal to $0$ and solve for $x$ .

Set $x + 8$ equal to $0$ .

$x + 8 = 0$

Subtract $8$ from both sides of the equation.

$x = - 8$

The final solution is all the values that make $9 x (x + 8) = 0$ true.

$x = 0, - 8$
