t^4 + 3t^3 − 10t^2 = 0 find all real solutions for t

OpenStudy (tamtoan):

factor the t^2 out, what you got left with? then factor that and set each of the factor equal to zero

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So it would be -2,0,5?

OpenStudy (tamtoan):

can you show me your factors ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

t^2, (t-5)(t+2) That is correct. Thank you!

OpenStudy (tamtoan):

-5 x 2 = - 10...but -5t + 2t ...does this equal 3t ? ie...is -5t + 2t = 3t correct ? :) i think you just made a minor mistake , check again?
