Question 345300
{{{x^2=15x}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{x^2-15x=0}}} Subtract 15x from both sides.



{{{x(x-15)=0}}} Factor out the GCF 'x'.



{{{x=0}}} or {{{x-15=0}}} Use the zero product property (that's given in the problem)



{{{x=0}}} or {{{x=15}}} Add 15 to both sides in the second equation.



So the solutions are {{{x=0}}} or {{{x=15}}}
