Question
Solve the equation
y1=−1,y2=0
Evaluate
−5y2−5y3=0
Factor the expression
−5y2(1+y)=0
Divide both sides
y2(1+y)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
y2=01+y=0
The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0
y=01+y=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
1+y=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
y=0−1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
y=−1
y=0y=−1
Solution
y1=−1,y2=0
