Question

Solve the equation (X-1) (2x+5)=0​

Answer 1

x = -5/2

x = 1

Explanation:

(x-1) (2x+5) = 0​

Divide both sides by (x-1)

2x+5 = 0​

Subtract 5 on both sides.

2x = -5

Divide 2 into both sides.

x = -5/2

(x-1) (2x+5) = 0​

Divide both sides by (2x+5).

x - 1 = 0

Add 1 to both sides.

x = 1
