2(x^2-1)(2x^4)=0

Solution for 2(x^2-1)(2x^4)=0 equation:

Simplifying
2(x2 + -1)(2x4) = 0

Reorder the terms:
2(-1 + x2)(2x4) = 0

Remove parenthesis around (2x4)
2(-1 + x2) * 2x4 = 0

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:
2 * 2x4(-1 + x2) = 0

Multiply 2 * 2
4x4(-1 + x2) = 0
(-1 * 4x4 + x2 * 4x4) = 0
(-4x4 + 4x6) = 0

Solving
-4x4 + 4x6 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(1 + x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
1 + x = 0

Solving
1 + x = 0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1' to each side of the equation.
1 + -1 + x = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
0 + x = 0 + -1
x = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1
x = -1

Simplifying
x = -1
Subproblem 3
Set the factor '(-1 + x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
-1 + x = 0

Solving
-1 + x = 0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-1 + 1 + x = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0
0 + x = 0 + 1
x = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1
x = 1

Simplifying
x = 1
Solution
x = {-1, 1}
