Put the quadratic in standard form 7x2+56x=0
Factor out the GCF 7x(x+8)=0
Set each factor equal to zero 7x=0
and x+8=0
The solutions are x=−8
and x=0
Put the quadratic in standard form 7 x squared plus 56 x equals 0 Factor out the GCF 7 x left parenthesis x plus 8 right parenthesis equals 0 Set each factor equal to zero 7 x equals 0 and x plus 8 equals 0 The solutions are x equals negative 8 and x equals 0

Put the quadratic in standard form 7x2−56x=0
Factor out the GCF 7x(x−8)=0

Answer 1

To solve the quadratic equation \(7x^2 = 56x\), we first bring it into standard form:

1. **Put the quadratic in standard form**:
\(7x^2 - 56x = 0\)

2. **Factor out the GCF**:
\(7x(x - 8) = 0\)

3. **Set each factor equal to zero**:
\[
7x = 0 \quad \text{and} \quad x - 8 = 0
\]

4. **The solutions are**:
\(x = 0 \quad \text{and} \quad x = 8\)

The correct choice from the provided options is:

- Put the quadratic in standard form: \(7x^2 - 56x = 0\)
- Factor out the GCF: \(7x(x - 8) = 0\)
- Set each factor equal to zero: \(7x = 0\) and \(x - 8 = 0\)
- The solutions are: \(x = 0\) and \(x = 8\)

So, the last complete set of steps that matches these findings correctly is:

**Put the quadratic in standard form**: \(7x^2 - 56x = 0\)
**Factor out the GCF**: \(7x(x - 8) = 0\)
**Set each factor equal to zero**: \(7x = 0\) and \(x - 8 = 0\)
**The solutions are**: \(x = 0\) and \(x = 8\)
