Step by step

The question

Question: solve x² = 0.

x2 = 0

1 Square root of both sides

x squared is 0.

Only 0 times 0 is 0.

0 × 0 = 0

So x = 0.

There is just one answer.

x = 0

2 Check

Let's check: put x = 0 into the left side.

x = 0: 02 = 0

We get 0, the same as the right side.

It works!

Let's look back.

First: square root of both sides.

Last: check.

Answer
x = 0
