Solve: 5x^(2)-8x=0....

Solve: `5x^(2)-8x=0.`

A

`x = 0`

B

`x = 8/5`

C

`x = 0` and `x = 8/5`

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
We have
`5x^(2)-8x=0impliesx(5x-8)=0impliesx=0" or "5x-8=0`
`impliesx=0" or "x=(8)/(5).`
Hence, 0 and `(8)/(5)` are the roots of the given equation.
