:5x^2-10x=0?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So what you'll want to do first is factor out an x so the equation becomes \[(5x-10) x=0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Since you know that one of those two multiples has to be 0 (since anything times 0 is 0) set them both equal to zero so you'll have to EQs\[5x-10=0\] and \[x=0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Solve for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x=0 is already solved so you don't need to do anything work with 5x-10=0 so add 10 to both sides.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5x=10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

divide both by 5 and x=2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So x=0 and x=2. That's your answer
