Question
Solve the equation
x=7
Evaluate
x3−2x2−245=0
Factor the expression
(x−7)(x2+5x+35)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x−7=0x2+5x+35=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
x−7=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
x=0+7
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
x=7
x=7x2+5x+35=0
