Question
For the following problems, use the zero-factor property to solve the equations.$$(y-4)(y-8)=0$$
Step 1
The zero-factor property states that if a product of factors is equal to zero, then at least one of the factors must be equal to zero. In this case, we have: (y - 4)(y - 8) = 0 So either (y - 4) = 0 or (y - 8) = 0. Show more…
