x2-5x=0
Factor x out of x2.
x⋅x-5x=0
Factor x out of -5x.
x⋅x+x⋅-5=0
Factor x out of x⋅x+x⋅-5.
x(x-5)=0
x(x-5)=0
If any individual factor on the left side of the equation is equal to 0, the entire expression will be equal to 0.
x=0
x-5=0
Set the first factor equal to 0.
x=0
Set the next factor equal to 0.
x-5=0
Add 5 to both sides of the equation.
x=5
x=5
The final solution is all the values that make x(x-5)=0 true.
x=0,5
Solve Using the Square Root Property x^2-5x=0
