Find the Roots (Zeros) x(x-5)=0

$x (x - 5) = 0$

Step 1

If any individual factor on the left side of the equation is equal to $0$ , the entire expression will be equal to $0$ .

$x = 0$

$x - 5 = 0$

Step 2

Set $x$ equal to $0$ .

$x = 0$

Step 3

Set $x - 5$ equal to $0$ and solve for $x$ .

Set $x - 5$ equal to $0$ .

$x - 5 = 0$

Add $5$ to both sides of the equation.

$x = 5$

Step 4

The final solution is all the values that make $x (x - 5) = 0$ true.

$x = 0, 5$
