Answer:

The solutions are:


x=5,\:x=-2,\:x=-3

Explanation:

To find the solutions of the equation
(x-5)(x+2)(x +3) =0 you can use the Zero Factor Theorem:

The product of two or more factors is zero if and only if at least one of the factors is zero, = 0 if and only if = 0 or = 0

That means


x-5=0\\x=5


x+2=0\\x=-2


x+3=0\\x=-3

The solutions are:


x=5,\:x=-2,\:x=-3
