Question

$$x = x \cdot 1$$

Solve for x (complex solution)

$x\in \mathrm{C}$

Solution Steps

Subtract $x\times 1$ from both sides.

$$x-x\times 1=0$$

Combine $x$ and $-x$ to get $0$.

$$0=0$$

Compare $0$ and $0$.

$$\text{true}$$

This is true for any $x$.

$$x\in \mathrm{C}$$

Solve for x

$x\in \mathrm{R}$

Solution Steps

Subtract $x\times 1$ from both sides.

$$x-x\times 1=0$$

Combine $x$ and $-x$ to get $0$.

$$0=0$$

Compare $0$ and $0$.

$$\text{true}$$

This is true for any $x$.

$$x\in \mathrm{R}$$
