Answer

0, -2\text{0, -2}

Step-by-step solution

4 steps
  1. Set the given quadratic polynomial equal to zero to find its zeroes.

    4u2+8u=04u^2 + 8u = 0
  2. Factor out the common term from the polynomial.

    The common term is 4u4u.

    4u(u+2)=04u(u + 2) = 0
  3. For the product of two factors to be zero, at least one of the factors must be zero.

    Set each factor equal to zero and solve for uu.

    4u=0oru+2=04u = 0 \quad \text{or} \quad u + 2 = 0
  4. Solve each equation for uu.

    u=04oru=−2u = \frac{0}{4} \quad \text{or} \quad u = -2 u=0oru=−2u = 0 \quad \text{or} \quad u = -2

    The zeroes of the polynomial 4u2+8u4u^2 + 8u are 0 and −2-2.

    The final answer is 0, -2\text{0, -2}.
