Zero Product Property Practice Guided Practice

Which TWO choices show the factored form of an expression?

What are the factors of the expression (x+3)(x-5)?

• (x+3)

• (x-5)

• x

• 3

• -5

Solve for the values of x:
(x + 2)(x - 3) = 0

• { 2, 3 }

• { -2, -3 }

• { 2, -3 }

• { -2, 3 }

Solve and find your zeros: z(z - 15)=0

• z = 0 and z = 15

• z = 0 and z = -15

• z = 0 only

• z = 15 only

• z = -15 only

Solve for x: (2x-1)(x+4)=0

the smaller solution for x is ​ (a)  

the larger solution for x is​ ​ (b)  

• -4
• 2
• -2
• 4

• 0

• 3

• -4

• -3

• 4

If x = -1 and x = 5 are two solutions to a quadratic equation, then what could the equation be?

• Yes, Mary's work is correct because she solved the equations correctly

• Yes, Mary's work is correct because she applied the Zero Product Property correctly

• No, Mary's work is not correct because she didn't solve the equations correctly

• No, Mary's work is not correct because she misapplied the Zero Product Property
