First, we'll have to move all terms to one
side:
5x^2 - 45 = 0
We'll
factorize by 5 to the left:
5(x^2 - 9) =
0
We'll divide by 5 both
sides:
x^2 - 9 = 0
We'll
re-write the difference of the squares as a
product:
(x-3)(x+3) = 0
We'll
cancel each factor:
x + 3 =
0
x = -3
x - 3 =
0
x =3
The
solutions of the equation are {-3 ; 3}.
