Use the Zero Product Property to solve the equation. (1 point)
(x-9)(x-8)=0
The Zero Product Property states that if the product of two factors is equal to zero, then at least one of the factors must be zero.
So, in this case, we have:
(x-9)(x-8) = 0
Therefore, either (x-9) = 0 or (x-8) = 0, or both are equal to zero.
Solving for x, we get:
x-9 = 0 or x-8 = 0
x = 9 or x = 8
Therefore, the solutions to the equation are x = 9 and x = 8.
To solve the equation (x-9)(x-8) = 0 using the Zero Product Property, we set each factor equal to zero and solve for x.
So, we have two possibilities:
1) Setting (x-9) equal to zero:
x - 9 = 0
Adding 9 to both sides of the equation:
x = 9
2) Setting (x-8) equal to zero:
x - 8 = 0
Adding 8 to both sides of the equation:
x = 8
Therefore, the solutions to the equation (x-9)(x-8) = 0 are x = 9 and x = 8.
To use the Zero Product Property to solve the equation, we set each factor of the equation equal to zero and solve for x.
Setting (x-9) equal to zero:
x - 9 = 0
Adding 9 to both sides:
x = 9
Setting (x-8) equal to zero:
x - 8 = 0
Adding 8 to both sides:
x = 8
Therefore, the solutions to the equation are x = 9 and x = 8.
