Question

This table presents zero product property to find the values of x that make the quadratic equation.
(x+3)(x+4)=0

x−3=0
x+4=0

x=3
x=−4

While using the Zero Product Property to find the values of x that make the quadratic equation (x+3)(x+4)
equals 0, Oliver completed the work provided in the table. Is Oliver’s work accurate?(1 point)

No, x+4=0
in the second row should be x−4=0
.

No, x−3=0
in the second row should be x+3=0
.

Yes, the work is accurate.

No, he should have a third column where he should set x=0

Answer 1

No. The first factor should be x+3=0 (not x−3=0). The correct solutions are x = −3 and x = −4.
