Help with math?

Hello, I'm currently working on a math problem where I'm supposed to calculate the inflection points of a function. I don't have any trouble with that in itself. My problem is that after calculating the second derivative, I have to find the zeros.

According to the solution and Geogebra, 0.9 comes out as one of the NSTs. But why isn't it -0.9? Isn't -9/10 -0.9? I seem to be missing something obvious here, but I'm not sure what.

Geogebra’s right.

The clamp must show 0 so that it is a zero.

And in (10x-9) you must definitely use something positive to get 0 out 😀

Just take the expression in the clip and release x, then get 0.9 out
