Percy is not correct because he applied the zero product property to a factored expression that was not equal to 0. He should have subtracted 12 from both sides to get x2 + 7x = 0 before factoring. The correct solutions are 0 and -7

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

The value of x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the pool = 20 feet

Width of the pool = (20 minus x) feet

Area of the pool = 300 square feet

Area of a rectangular pool = length × width

300 = 20 (20 - x)

300 = 400 - 20x

Subtract 400 from both sides

300 - 400 = 400 - 20x - 400

- 100 = - 20x

Divide both sides by -20

x = -100/-20

= 5

x = 5

The value of x = 5
