Answer:

x=5 twice

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-10x+25=0

multiply the coefficient of x^2 and the last term

1X25=25

find two numbers you can multiply to get 25 and add to get -10

-5 + (-5)=-10 the middle term

replace -10x with -5x -5x and solve the equation

x^2-5x-5x+25=0

factorise by grouping

x(x-5)-5(x-5)=0

(x-5)(x-5)=0

Either x-5=0,x=5 or x-5=0,x=5

Therefore x=5 twice.
