Solving Equations by Factoring Algebra 1 ~ Chapter 9.2 day 2 Solving Equations by Factoring
Zero Product Property Some equations can be solved by factoring. Consider the following products – 6(0) = 0 0(-3) = 0 4xyz(0) = 0 0(a + 1) = 0 Notice that in each case, at least one of the factors is zero. These examples illustrate the Zero Product Property – If the product of two factors is 0, then at least one of the factors must be 0.
CHECK! CHECK! Here are two examples of solving equations by factoring where the equations are already factored! a.) 3x(x – 2) = 0 b.) (x – 4)(2x + 7) = 0 3x = 0 or x – 2 = 0 x – 4 = 0 or 2x + 7 = 0 x = 0 or x = 2 x = 4 or x = -3.5 CHECK! CHECK!
Example 1 – Solve each equation in Factored Form 6m = 0 or m – 5 = 0 d – 7 = 0 or 3d + 4 = 0 m = 0 or m = 5 d = 7 or x = -4/3 a.) 6m(m – 5) = 0 b.) (d – 7)(3d + 4) = 0 CHECK! CHECK!
Here are two more examples where the equations are not factored yet Here are two more examples where the equations are not factored yet. Therefore we must factor the polynomial first! Remember, we can only use the Zero Product Property if the equation is = 0! a.) 5y2 + 15y = 0 b.) a2 = 8a 5y(y + 3) = 0 a2 – 8a = 0 a(a – 8) = 0 5y = 0 or y + 3 = 0 y = 0 or y = -3 a = 0 or a – 8 = 0 a = 8
Example 2 – Solve each equation by factoring c.) 3m2 + 5m = 0 d.) 9y2 – 18y = 0 e.) 10m2 = 20m
