1. **State the problem:** We need to find all x-intercepts of the function $$f(x) = -2x^4 + 2x$$. The x-intercepts occur where $$f(x) = 0$$.
2. **Set the function equal to zero:**
$$-2x^4 + 2x = 0$$
3. **Factor the equation:**
First, factor out the common factor $$2x$$:
$$2x(-x^3 + 1) = 0$$
4. **Apply the zero product property:**
Set each factor equal to zero:
$$2x = 0$$ or $$-x^3 + 1 = 0$$
5. **Solve each equation:**
- For $$2x = 0$$:
$$\cancel{2}x = 0 \Rightarrow x = 0$$
- For $$-x^3 + 1 = 0$$:
$$-x^3 = -1$$
$$x^3 = 1$$
$$x = \sqrt[3]{1} = 1$$
6. **List all x-intercepts:**
The x-intercepts are $$x = 0$$ and $$x = 1$$.
**Final answer:** $$\boxed{0, 1}$$
X Intercepts 00E3E5
