    How Do You Solve Exponents Like X^3 + X^5 = 0?

    Thanks guys, due to a brain fart this problem took me like 30min because i didnt factor, then i couldn't remember the zero thing till about 10min ago. I thought I am gona be a garbage man after this simple brain freeze. Last brain freeze was adding two digit number:)

    How Do You Solve Exponents Like X^3 + X^5 = 0?

    Hmm found something but can't explain the rule (help explaining please) Got it to X^3(1+X)=0 for some reason you break it down to 2 solutions x^3=0 and 1+x=0 since the first one doesn't work, the second one is the answer, which i can solve. X=-1

    How Do You Solve Exponents Like X^3 + X^5 = 0?

    Well it appears that as i get higher in math, i lose the stuff i learned awhile ago. This type has me stumped for some reason. x^3 + X^5=0 Or another one X^3 + x^4=0 I can break them down to X^3(1+X^2)=0 or X^3(X +1)=0 I just can seem to solve these simple guys.
