The correct student's solution is accurate because they correctly applied the Zero Product Property in step 3 which states that if a product of factors equals zero, then at least one of the factors must be zero. They then solved the resulting equations correctly in step 4.
The incorrect student's solution is inaccurate because they did not apply the Zero Product Property correctly in step 3. They incorrectly set the factors equal to 7 instead of 0. This resulted in incorrect solutions in step 4.
