1. Problem Description

The problem asks us to find the solutions for the following equations:
a) (03)x2=0(0-3)x^2 = 0
b) (32)x2=0(3-\sqrt{2})x^2 = 0
c) mx2=0mx^2 = 0 for m0m \neq 0
d) (m1)x2=0(m-1)x^2 = 0 for m=1m=1

2. Solution Steps

a) (03)x2=0(0-3)x^2 = 0
3x2=0-3x^2 = 0
x2=03x^2 = \frac{0}{-3}
x2=0x^2 = 0
x=0x = 0
b) (32)x2=0(3-\sqrt{2})x^2 = 0
Since 3203 - \sqrt{2} \neq 0, we can divide both sides by (32)(3-\sqrt{2}):
x2=032x^2 = \frac{0}{3-\sqrt{2}}
x2=0x^2 = 0
x=0x = 0
c) mx2=0mx^2 = 0 for m0m \neq 0
Since m0m \neq 0, we can divide both sides by mm:
x2=0mx^2 = \frac{0}{m}
x2=0x^2 = 0
x=0x = 0
d) (m1)x2=0(m-1)x^2 = 0 for m=1m=1
Substitute m=1m=1 into the equation:
(11)x2=0(1-1)x^2 = 0
0x2=00x^2 = 0
0=00 = 0
This equation is true for any value of xx. Thus, xx can be any real number.

3. Final Answer

a) x=0x = 0
b) x=0x = 0
c) x=0x = 0
d) xRx \in \mathbb{R}
