Answer:


x=0 and
x=-12

Explanation:

The given quadratic equation is:


5x^2+60x=0

simplifying the above quadratic equation, we get


x(5x+60)=0


x=0 and
5x+60=0


x=0 and
5(x+12)=0


x=0 and
x=-12

Therefore, the solution of the quadratic equation is:


x=0 and
x=-12.

Thus, option A is correct.

5x^2+60x=0
x(5x+60)=0

x=0
and
5x+60=0
5x=-60
x=-12

therefore, the first option is correct
