2.161616 = 2.161616/1 =21. 61616/10 = 216.1616/100 = 2161.616/1,000
= 21616.16/10,000 = 216161.6/100,000 = 2161616/1,000,000
As a mixed number = 2(161616/100,000)
To find the zeros of this equation you need to first set it equal to zero
2x2 + 16x - 9 = 0
But since you can't FOIL this equation you need to move the non-variable number over
2x2 +16x = 9
Now solve for x by pulling an x out of the equation
x(2x + 16) = 9
x = 9
2x +16 = 9
2x = -7
x = -7/2
So your zeros would be at x = 9, and -7/2
