Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
First move all terms to one side of the equation to set them equal to 0
That is already done in your problem
The try to factor, if possible. In your case, factor out x
x(2x + 5) = 0 Now, use the property that says if AB = 0, then A = 0 or B = 0 or both A and B equal 0
So, x = 0 or 2x + 5 = 0
2x = -5
x = 
Always check your results in the original equation to see if they work

and 
Both results make the equation true, so
