Step 2.2.1

Take the specified root of both sides of the equation to eliminate the exponent on the left side.

$x = \sqrt[5]{0}$

Step 2.2.2

Simplify $\sqrt[5]{0}$ .

Step 2.2.2.1

Rewrite $0$ as $0^{5}$ .

$x = \sqrt[5]{0^{5}}$

Step 2.2.2.2

Pull terms out from under the radical, assuming real numbers.

$x = 0$

Step 3

The final solution is all the values that make $7 x^{5} x = 0$ true.

$x = 0$
