Use the commutative property to reorder the terms
5x(x−5)
5x(x−5)>0
Rewrite the expression
5x(x−5)=0
Elimination the left coefficient
x(x−5)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x=0x−5=0
Solve the equation

Evaluate
x−5=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
x=0+5
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
x=5
x=0x=5
Determine the test intervals using the critical values
x<00<x<5x>5
Choose a value form each interval
x1=−1x2=3x3=6
To determine if x<0 is the solution to the inequality,test if the chosen value x=−1 satisfies the initial inequality

The original inequality is a strict inequality,so does not include the critical value ,the final solution is x∈(−∞,0)∪(5,+∞)
x∈(−∞,0)∪(5,+∞)
Check if the solution is in the defined range
x∈(−∞,0)∪(5,+∞),x=0
Solution
x∈(−∞,0)∪(5,+∞)
Show Solution
