Exercise 13 Page 174

x=0 and x=9

Practice makes perfect

To solve the given equation, let's factor and solve using the Zero Product Property.

Factoring

Let's get factoring!

x^2-9x=0
x(x-9)=0

Solving

Now we can apply the Zero Product Property to solve.

x(x-9)=0
lcx=0 & (I) x-9=0 & (II)
lx_1=0 x_2=9

The solutions for our equation are 0 and 9.
