Answer:
The solution of the given equation is (5/2, 1/3)
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given an equation,
(2x - 5)(3x - 1) = 0
To find the solution of given equation
(2x - 5)(3x - 1) = 0 means that,
either (2x - 5) = 0 or (3x - 1) = 0
If 2x - 5 = 0
2x = 5
x = 5/2
or 3x - 1 = 0
3x = 3
x = 1/3
Therefore the solution of the given equation is (5/2, 1/3)
ANSWER
[tex]\: x =2 \frac{1}{2} \: or \: x = \frac{1}{3} [/tex]
EXPLANATION
The equation is given in the factored form as:
[tex](2x - 5)(3x - 1) = 0[/tex]
According to zero product principle
[tex]either \: \: (2x - 5) = 0 \: or \: (3x - 1) = 0[/tex]
This implies that,
[tex]either \: \: 2x = 5 \: or \: 3x = 1[/tex]
We divide the first equation by 2 and the second by 3
[tex]either \: \: x = \frac{5}{2} \: or \: x = \frac{1}{3} [/tex]
The solutions are
[tex]\: x =2 \frac{1}{2} \: or \: x = \frac{1}{3} [/tex]
