Use the Zero Product Property to find the value of x that makes the following statement true: 2⋅(x−3)=0 .(1 point)

The value that makes the statement true is x=

1 answer

To solve the equation \(2 \cdot (x - 3) = 0\) using the Zero Product Property, we start by recognizing that if the product of two factors is zero, at least one of the factors must also be zero.

In this case, the factor \(2\) is not zero. Therefore, we can focus on the second factor:

\[ x - 3 = 0 \]

Now, we can solve for \(x\):

\[ x = 3 \]

Thus, the value that makes the statement true is \(x = 3\).
