Answer 1

To factor out the GCF and solve the quadratic equation \( 7x^2 = 56x \), we follow these steps:

1. Put the quadratic in standard form: Subtract \( 56x \) from both sides to get \( 7x^2 - 56x = 0 \).

2. Factor out the GCF: The GCF of \( 7x^2 \) and \( 56x \) is \( 7x \). Factoring gives us \( 7x(x - 8) = 0 \).

3. Set each factor equal to zero:

   • From \( 7x = 0 \), we get \( x = 0 \).
   • From \( x - 8 = 0 \), we get \( x = 8 \).

4. The solutions are: \( x = 0 \) and \( x = 8 \).

Now, let's analyze the responses:

1. Response 1: This matches all the correct steps and gives the correct solutions \( x = 0 \) and \( x = 8 \).

2. Response 2: This also matches the correct steps and gives the correct solutions \( x = 0 \) and \( x = 8 \).

3. Response 3: Incorrect solutions of \( x = -7 \) instead of \( x = 0 \).

4. Response 4: Incorrectly uses \( 7x^2 + 56x = 0 \); it should be \( 7x^2 - 56x = 0 \).

5. Response 5: Incorrectly states \( x-8 = 0 \) without setting the equation correctly from standard form.

Therefore, the first and the second responses are correct:

• Correct Response: Response 1 and Response 2 both accurately describe the steps to factor out the GCF and solve the quadratic equation.
