Question
For the following problems, use the zero-factor property to solve the equations.$$(2 y+5)(2 y+5)=0$$
Step 1
The zero-factor property states that if a * b = 0, then either a = 0 or b = 0 (or both). In this case, we have (2y + 5)(2y + 5) = 0, so either (2y + 5) = 0 or (2y + 5) = 0 (since both factors are the same). Show more…
