How do you solve #(2x - \frac { 1} { 3} ) ( x + \frac { 3} { 4} ) ( x ^ { 2} - 25) = 0#?

Use the Zero Product Property for each of the factors:

Explanation:

Solve #2x - 1/3=0# to get #2x = 1/3# or #x = 1/6#.

Solve #x+3/4=0# to get #x = -3/4#.

And last, solve #x^2-25=0# to get #x^2=25# or #x=+-5#.

This factored form of a polynomial equation makes your job much easier!
