Question 607627: Solve the equation for x (Show work! Exact Answers)
x^2e^x - 5xe^x = 0

Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x^2e^x - 5xe^x = 0

(x^2 - 5x)e^x = 0

x^2 - 5x = 0 or e^x = 0

x^2 - 5x = 0

x(x-5) = 0

x = 0 or x-5 = 0

x = 0 or x = 5

So the solutions are x = 0 or x = 5
