Find the roots
x=0
Evaluate
3(5x×1−1)×12(5x×1)
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
3(5x×1−1)×12(5x×1)=0
Any expression multiplied by 1 remains the same
3(5x−1)×12(5x×1)=0
Any expression multiplied by 1 remains the same
3(5x−1)×12(5x)=0
Calculate
3(5x−1)×12×5x=0
Multiply both sides
3(5x−1)×12×5x×361=0×361
Calculate
(5x−1)×5x=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
5x−1=05x=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
5x−1=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
5x=0+1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
5x=1
Rewrite in exponential form
5x=50
Since the bases are the same,set the exponents equal
x=0
x=05x=0
Since the left-hand side is always positive,and the right-hand side is always 0,the statement is false for any value of x
x=0x∈/R
Solution
x=0
