Answer: x = 0 and x = 7

Explanation:

9x^2 - 63x = 0.

We can factor out 9x from both terms on the left side:

9x(x - 7) = 0.

To be equal to 0, one of the terms has to be 0.

Therefore, either 9x = 0 or x - 7 = 0.

First, we solve the case where 9x = 0.

Then, x = 0.

Second, we solve the case where x - 7 = 0.

We add 7 to both sides:

So, x = 7
