Answer:

y = 4

y = 0

Explanation:

Step 1 :

Equation at the end of step 1 :

5y • (y - 4) = 0

Step 2 :

Theory - Roots of a product :

2.1 A product of several terms equals zero.

When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.

We shall now solve each term = 0 separately

In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

2.2 Solve : 5y = 0

Divide both sides of the equation by 5:

y = 0

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

2.3 Solve : y-4 = 0

Add 4 to both sides of the equation :

y = 4

Hope this helps
