#2) X to the second power -3x=0
 
 
How do I solve this?
 
 
 Answer by stanbon(75887)      (Show Source): 
You can  put this solution on YOUR website! #1) (2x-3) (4x+5)=0 
If this product is zero, one of those factors must be zero. 
If 2x-3 =0, then x=3/2 
If 4x+5 =0, then x=-5/4 
So x=3/2 or x=-5/4 are the two solutions. 
-------------------- 
  
#2) X^2 -3x=0  
In this problem you have to first find the factors: 
x(x-3) = 0 
If this product is zero, one of those factors must be zero. 
If x=0, x=0 
if x-3=0, then x=3 
So x=0 or x=3 are the two solutions.
