Solution for 3x=2x(x-1) equation:


Simplifying
3x = 2x(x + -1)

Reorder the terms:
3x = 2x(-1 + x)
3x = (-1 * 2x + x * 2x)
3x = (-2x + 2x2)

Solving
3x = -2x + 2x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Combine like terms: 3x + 2x = 5x
5x + -2x2 = -2x + 2x2 + 2x + -2x2

Reorder the terms:
5x + -2x2 = -2x + 2x + 2x2 + -2x2

Combine like terms: -2x + 2x = 0
5x + -2x2 = 0 + 2x2 + -2x2
5x + -2x2 = 2x2 + -2x2

Combine like terms: 2x2 + -2x2 = 0
5x + -2x2 = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), 'x'.
x(5 + -2x) = 0

Subproblem 1

Set the factor 'x' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying x = 0 Solving x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Simplifying x = 0

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(5 + -2x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 5 + -2x = 0 Solving 5 + -2x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-5' to each side of the equation. 5 + -5 + -2x = 0 + -5 Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0 0 + -2x = 0 + -5 -2x = 0 + -5 Combine like terms: 0 + -5 = -5 -2x = -5 Divide each side by '-2'. x = 2.5 Simplifying x = 2.5

Solution

x = {0, 2.5}
