Evaluate
x+5x2
Rewrite the expression
x+x×5x
Factor out x from the expression
x(1+5x)
x(1+5x)=0
When the product of factors equals 0,at least one factor is 0
x=01+5x=0
Solve the equation for x
More Steps

Evaluate
1+5x=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
Divide both sides
55x=5−1
Divide the numbers
x=5−1
Use b−a=−ba=−ba to rewrite the fraction
x=−51
x=0x=−51
