Question

For which values of x does 2x^2=10x?

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 0; x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x² = 10x

2x² - 10x = 0

2x(x - 5) = 0

x = 0; x = 5

Answer 2

Answer:

The values of x for which it is true that  $2x^2=10x$  are:

$x = 0$ and $x = 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following equation

$2x^2=10x$

To solve the equation subtract 10x on both sides of the equation

$2x^2-10x=10x-10x$

$2x^2-10x=0$

Now take the variable x as a common factor

$2x(x-5)=0$

Then the equation is equal to 0 when x = 0 or when x = 5

$x = 0$ and $x = 5$
