Solve for x x^3-11x^2+10x=0

$x^{3} - 11 x^{2} + 10 x = 0$

Step 1

Factor the left side of the equation.

Factor $x$ out of $x^{3} - 11 x^{2} + 10 x$ .

Factor $x$ out of $x^{3}$ .

$x \cdot x^{2} - 11 x^{2} + 10 x = 0$

Factor $x$ out of $- 11 x^{2}$ .

$x \cdot x^{2} + x (- 11 x) + 10 x = 0$

Factor $x$ out of $10 x$ .

$x \cdot x^{2} + x (- 11 x) + x \cdot 10 = 0$

Factor $x$ out of $x \cdot x^{2} + x (- 11 x)$ .

$x (x^{2} - 11 x) + x \cdot 10 = 0$

Factor $x$ out of $x (x^{2} - 11 x) + x \cdot 10$ .

$x (x^{2} - 11 x + 10) = 0$

Factor.

Factor $x^{2} - 11 x + 10$ using the AC method.

Consider the form $x^{2} + b x + c$ . Find a pair of integers whose product is $c$ and whose sum is $b$ . In this case, whose product is $10$ and whose sum is $- 11$ .

$- 10, - 1$

Write the factored form using these integers.

$x ((x - 10) (x - 1)) = 0$

Remove unnecessary parentheses.

$x (x - 10) (x - 1) = 0$

Step 2

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

$x = 0$

$x - 10 = 0$

$x - 1 = 0$

Step 3

Set $x$ equal to $0$ .

$x = 0$

Step 4

Set $x - 10$ equal to $0$ and solve for $x$ .

Set $x - 10$ equal to $0$ .

$x - 10 = 0$

Add $10$ to both sides of the equation.

$x = 10$

Step 5

Set $x - 1$ equal to $0$ and solve for $x$ .

Set $x - 1$ equal to $0$ .

$x - 1 = 0$

Add $1$ to both sides of the equation.

$x = 1$

Step 6

The final solution is all the values that make $x (x - 10) (x - 1) = 0$ true.

$x = 0, 10, 1$

Solve for x x^3-11x^2+10x=0
