Solve the equation using the Zero Product Property. (7x+2)(5x−4)=0

Question

A. 2/7, 4/5
B. 2/7, -4/5
C. -2/7, 4/5
D. -2/7, -4/5

Answer 1

To solve this equation using the Zero Product Property, we need to set each factor equal to zero and solve for x.

First factor: 7x + 2 = 0
7x = -2
x = -2/7

Second factor: 5x - 4 = 0
5x = 4
x = 4/5

So the solutions are x = -2/7 and x = 4/5.

The correct answer is A. 2/7, 4/5.
