Question

Which are solutions of the equation (x + 5)(x – 3) = 0? Check all that apply.

Answer 1

X(to the second power) + 2x - 15 = 0

Answer 2

Hi there!

To find the solutions of the equation, just set them up equal to zero.

(x + 5)(x - 3) = 0

x + 5 = 0 x - 3 = 0
- 5 -5 + 3 +3
-------------- ----------------
x = -5 x = 3


The solutions of your equation is x = -5 , x = 3.

Hope this helped! :)
