Which of these is equivalent to 2cos²x − 3cosx = 0 ?

• -cos²x = 0

• cosx(2cosx + 3) = 0

• cosx(2cosx − 3) = 0

• cos x = ⅔

Which is a correct way to solve the equation

cosx(2cosx − 3) = 0?

• divide cos x from both sides

• set each factor equal to 0 and solve

• distribute cosx into the parentheses

• guess and hope for the best
