Find the roots
x1=0,x2=2
Evaluate
(2x2−x3)(2x5)
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
(2x2−x3)(2x5)=0
Multiply the terms
(2x2−x3)×2x5=0
Multiply the terms
2x5(2x2−x3)=0
Elimination the left coefficient
x5(2x2−x3)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x5=02x2−x3=0
The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0
x=02x2−x3=0
Solve the equation

Factor the expression
x2(2−x)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x2=02−x=0
The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0
x=02−x=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
2−x=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−x=0−2
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−x=−2
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
x=2
x=0x=2
x=0x=0x=2
Find the union
x=0x=2
Solution
x1=0,x2=2
