4 0

Answer:

  (x + 1)(x + 9) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

After you subtract 16 from both sides, you get ...

  x² +10x +9 = 0

When you factor this equation, it becomes ...

  (x +1)(x +9) = 0

_____

For the zero product property to be of any use, the form of the equation must be a product that equals zero.

___

<em>Comment on the other answer choice</em>

(x -1)(x -9) = 0 = x² -10x +9 . . . . . the x term is different from that in the given equation. It has the wrong sign.

A scientist makes an acid solution by adding drops of acid to 1.2 L of water. The final volume of the acid solution is 1.202 L.
laila [671]

Answer:

40 drops

Approximately 0.166 %

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be easier to work the same units for volume

Since there are 1000 ml in a liter

Original water volume 1.2 L = 1.2 x 1000 = 1200 mLl

The final volume of the acid-water solution = 1.202 L = 1202 mL

So total volume of acid added = 1202-1200 = 2 mL

Each drop of acid is 0.05 mL

Number of drops added = 2/.05 = 40 drops

Percent of acid in acid solution = (Volume of acid added)/(Final volume) x 100 = (2/1202) ≈ 0.00166 x 100 ≈ 0.166 %
