Solve for the value of dd that satisfies the equation (d7)(5d2)=0(d-7)(5d-2)=0.

STEP 1

Assumptions
1. We are given the equation (d7)(5d2)=0(d-7)(5d-2)=0.
2. We need to solve for the variable dd.
3. The solutions for dd should be written as integers or as proper or improper fractions.

STEP 2

To solve the equation (d7)(5d2)=0(d-7)(5d-2)=0, we will use the zero product property, which states that if the product of two factors is zero, then at least one of the factors must be zero.

STEP 3

Set each factor equal to zero and solve for dd.
For the first factor: d7=0d-7=0

STEP 4

Add 7 to both sides of the equation to solve for dd.
d7+7=0+7d-7+7=0+7

STEP 5

Simplify the equation to find the value of dd.
d=7d=7

STEP 6

Now, set the second factor equal to zero and solve for dd.
For the second factor: 5d2=05d-2=0

STEP 7

Add 2 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with dd.
5d2+2=0+25d-2+2=0+2

STEP 8

Simplify the equation to find the value of dd.
5d=25d=2

STEP 9

Divide both sides of the equation by 5 to solve for dd.
5d5=25\frac{5d}{5}=\frac{2}{5}

STEP 10

Simplify the equation to find the value of dd.
d=25d=\frac{2}{5}

STEP 11

Combine the solutions from STEP_5 and STEP_10.
The solutions for dd are: d=7 or d=25d=7 \text{ or } d=\frac{2}{5}
