Question
Solve the equation
x1=0,x2=1
Evaluate
5x5=5x4
Add or subtract both sides
5x5−5x4=0
Factor the expression
5x4(x−1)=0
Divide both sides
x4(x−1)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x4=0x−1=0
The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0
x=0x−1=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
x−1=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
x=0+1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
x=1
x=0x=1
Solution
x1=0,x2=1
