Theory - Roots of a product
4.1 A product of several terms equals zero.
When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.
We shall now solve each term = 0 separately
In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product
Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.
Solving a Single Variable Equation:
4.2 Solve : 6x = 0
Divide both sides of the equation by 6:
x = 0
Solving a Single Variable Equation:
4.3 Solve : 3x-1 = 0
Add 1 to both sides of the equation :
3x = 1
Divide both sides of the equation by 3:
x = 1/3 = 0.333
Two solutions were found :
x = 1/3 = 0.333
x = 0
quotient=2x
remainder=0
dividend=18x^2
divisor=6x
