Solve for x 10x^2-50x=0

$10 x^{2} - 50 x = 0$

Step 1

Factor $10 x$ out of $10 x^{2} - 50 x$ .

Factor $10 x$ out of $10 x^{2}$ .

$10 x (x) - 50 x = 0$

Factor $10 x$ out of $- 50 x$ .

$10 x (x) + 10 x (- 5) = 0$

Factor $10 x$ out of $10 x (x) + 10 x (- 5)$ .

$10 x (x - 5) = 0$

Step 2

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 3

Set $x$ equal to $0$ .

$x = 0$

Step 4

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 5

The final solution is all the values that make $10 x (x - 5) = 0$ true.

$x = 0, 5$
