Question

Can someone please explain me about the Zero-Product property

Answer 1

With this equation:
\[a^2+8a+12=0\]

Answer 2

when you factor the left side you get
(a+6)(a+2)=0
when you multiply the 2 factors, one of the two must be 0 for the answer to equal zero
then you set a+6=0 and a+2=0 and solve

Answer 3

What the Zero-Property means is that if we have any 2 things that multiply to give 0, then one of those things must be 0

Answer 4

Got it
