Find the roots
x=1
Evaluate
(x−1)×2−10(x−1)×25
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
(x−1)×2−10(x−1)×25=0
Multiply the terms
2(x−1)−10(x−1)×25=0
Multiply the terms
2(x−1)−250(x−1)=0
Subtract the terms
−124(2x−2)=0
Change the sign
124(2x−2)=0
Rewrite the expression
2x−2=0
Move the constant to the right side
2x=0+2
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
2x=2
Divide both sides
22x=22
Divide the numbers
x=22
