Find the roots
x1=−210i,x2=210i,x3=0
Alternative Form
x1≈−1.581139i,x2≈1.581139i,x3=0
Evaluate
−5x(−2x2−5)
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
−5x(−2x2−5)=0
Change the sign
5x(−2x2−5)=0
Elimination the left coefficient
x(−2x2−5)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x=0−2x2−5=0
Solve the equation

Evaluate
−2x2−5=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−2x2=0+5
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−2x2=5
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
2x2=−5
Divide both sides
22x2=2−5
Divide the numbers
x2=2−5
Use b−a=−ba=−ba to rewrite the fraction
x2=−25
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
