Answer :-

Simplifying the equation -

\implies\sf x^2(x-1)(x-4)-2x^3= -6x^2

\implies\sf x^2 [ x( x - 4) - 1 ( x - 4 ) ] - 2x^3 = - 6x^2

\implies\sf x^2 [ x^2 - 4x - x + 4 ] - 2x^3 = -6x^2

\implies\sf x^2 [ x^2 - 5x + 4 ] - 2x^3 = -6x^2

\implies\sf x^4 - 5x^3 + 4x^2 - 2x^3 = -6x^2

\implies\sf x^4 - 5x^3 - 2x^3 + 4x^2 + 6x^2 = 0

\implies\sf x^4 - 7x^3 + 10x^2 = 0

\implies\sf \dfrac{x^4 - 7x^3 + 10x^2}{x^2} = \dfrac{0}{x^2}

\implies\sf \dfrac{x^4}{x^2} - \dfrac{7x^3}{x^2} + \dfrac{10x^2}{x^2} = 0

\implies\sf x^2 - 7x + 10 = 0

Factorizing the equation -

\implies\sf x^2 - 7x + 10 = 0

By using middle term splitting method :-

\implies\sf x^2 - 5x - 2x + 10 = 0

\implies\sf x( x - 5 ) - 2 ( x - 5 ) = 0

\implies\sf ( x - 2 )(x - 5 ) = 0

Finding the roots -

\implies\sf ( x - 2 )(x - 5 ) = 0

\sf x - 2 = 0

\implies\sf x = 2

\sf x - 5 = 0

\implies\sf x= 5

Possible solutions of the given equation are 5 , 2.

[Let's solve your equation step-by-step]

.x2(x−1)(x−4)−2x3=−6x2

x4−7x3+4x2=−6x2

Step 1: Subtract -6x^2 from both sides.

x4−7x3+4x2−−6x2=−6x2−−6x2

x4−7x3+10x2=0

Step 2: Factor left side of equation.

x2(x−2)(x−5)=0

Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.

x2=0 or x−2=0 or x−5=0

{\large{\underline{\textsf{\textbf{\color{red}{➵}{\color{blue}{\:\:ANSWER\: :-}}}}}}}

x=0 or x=2 or x=5
