Zero Product Property Practice

In the equation (x + 2)(x - 3) = 0, the binomials are called (a)   ?

• Factors
• Products
• Multiples
• Zeros

What is the first step in solving 
(x + 2)(x - 3) = 0      ?

• Plug in zero for x
• Solve for x
• FOIL
• Set each binomial factor equal to zero

Solve by factoring:  2x2+ 7x + 6 = 0 (a)  

• x= 3/2 and x = 2
• x = -3/2 and x = -2
• x = 6 and x = 7
• x = -6 and x = -7

Find the zeros:(4x+8)(8x-16)=0 (a)  

• {2}
• {-2}
• {-2,2}
• {0,-2,2}

Find the x-intercepts:5(x+12)(x-12) = 0 (a)  

• {5,12,-12}
• {-12,+12}
• {0,12,-12}
• {12}
