Question 47985: I really don't think this is a variable involving problem but i need help.
ok my question is= 5x2(number 2 is an exponent wich goes on top of x)-10x.
ok in simple form is 5x2-10x

Answer by stanbon(75887)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
5x^2-10x
This expression has a common factor of 5x.
You want to factor the expression as follows:
=5x(x-2)
---------------------
Each of these factors is "prime" meaning they
cannot be further factored in the Real Number
System.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Stan H.
