Zero Product Property (Part 1)

Solve the equation:

(x + 9)(x - 3) = 0

• {-3, 9}

• {-9, -3}

• {-9, 3}

• {3, 9}

Solve the equation:

(2x - 5)(x + 7) = 0

• {-7, 5}

• {-7, 5/2}

• {7, 2/5}

• {7, 5}

Answer explanation

Set each binomial to 0 and solve for x.

2x-5=0 & x+7=0

Solve the equation:

(3x + 4)(x - 10) = 0

• {-4, 10}

• {-10, -4/3}

• {-4/3, 10}

• {-10, -4}

Solve the equation:

(x + 4)(5x - 10) = 0

• {-4, 2}

• {-2, 4}

• {4, 10}

• {-4, 5}

Solve the equation:

(x + 3)(x - 1) = 0

Type in the x-values from least to greatest separated by a comma and no spaces.

Solve the equation:

(4x - 7)(3x + 12) = 0

• {-7, 12}

• {-7/4, 4}

• {-4, 7/4}

• {-12, 7}

Solve the equation:

x(4x + 9) = 0

• {9}

• {-9/4}

• {-9/4, 0}

• {-4, 0}

Answer explanation

When there is a GCF and binomial, we still set each part equal to 0.

x=0 & 4x + 9 = 0

Solve the equation:

-4x(9x - 1) = 0

• {-1}

• {0, 1/9}

• {-4, 9}

• {-4, 1/9}

Solve the equation:

-5x(3x + 2) = 0

Type the x-values in order from least to greatest, separated by a comma with no spaces.

Solve the equation:

(8x + 24)(3x - 7) = 0

Type the x-values in order from least to greatest, separated by a comma with no spaces.
