Answer:
x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]x^3-7x^2-x =0\\[/tex]
Take out common factor
[tex]x(x^2-7x-1) = 0[/tex]
The factor inside the parenthesis cannot be factored
Since there is a common factor that we pulled out of the original equation,
set that x equal to zero and solve
[tex]x = 0\\[/tex] : Therefore x = 0
