Solve for x (x-4)(x-4)=0

$(x - 4) (x - 4) = 0$

Step 1

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

$x - 4 = 0$

Step 2

Set $x - 4$ equal to $0$ and solve for $x$ .

Set $x - 4$ equal to $0$ .

$x - 4 = 0$

Add $4$ to both sides of the equation.

$x = 4$

Step 3

The final solution is all the values that make $(x - 4) (x - 4) = 0$ true.

$x = 4$
