Question

Which of the following values are zeros of x(x+5)(x-3)?

a. -5
b. 3
c. 0
d. 5
e. 3

can someone help me witht this question?

Answer 1

the whole thing would become zero, if one or more the factors are zero.
(since zero times anything will give you zero)

You have 3 factors, each one could be zero
let's take one of them (x+5)
then x+5= 0
x = -5

do you see that as one of the choices?
Don't forget the x itself as a factor that could be zero

let me know what choices you made
