Solve for x (x-8)(x-8)=0

$(x - 8) (x - 8) = 0$

Step 1

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

$x - 8 = 0$

Step 2

Set $x - 8$ equal to $0$ and solve for $x$ .

Set $x - 8$ equal to $0$ .

$x - 8 = 0$

Add $8$ to both sides of the equation.

$x = 8$

Step 3

The final solution is all the values that make $(x - 8) (x - 8) = 0$ true.

$x = 8$
