True or false:
The solution, root, x-intercept, and zero of a problem are all the same thing.

• True
• False, because the solution and root are the same but the x-intercept and zero are different
• False, because the x-intercept and root are the same but the zero and solution are different
• False, they are all different

Convert x² - 9x + 20 to factored form and solve.

• (x-10)(x+2); x = -2, 10
• (x+4)(x+5); x = -5, -4
• (x-4)(x-5); x = 4, 5
• Not factorable
