Show Solution

Find the roots
x1=0,x2=100
Evaluate
x×4100−x
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
x×4100−x=0
Multiply the terms
4x(100−x)=0
Simplify
x(100−x)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x=0100−x=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
100−x=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−x=0−100
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−x=−100
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
x=100
x=0x=100
Solution
x1=0,x2=100
