Find the roots
x1=0,x2=7
Evaluate
(x2−7x)(7x4)
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
(x2−7x)(7x4)=0
Multiply the terms
(x2−7x)×7x4=0
Multiply the terms
7x4(x2−7x)=0
Elimination the left coefficient
x4(x2−7x)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x4=0x2−7x=0
The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0
x=0x2−7x=0
Solve the equation

Evaluate
x−7=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
x=0+7
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
x=7
x=0x=7
x=0x=0x=7
Find the union
x=0x=7
