Answer:

either x or y must equal 0​

Step-by-step explanation:

ts given that xy = 0

Remember that product of two numbers can be zero only if:

Both of them are zero or Either of them is zero as zero multiplied to any non-zero number will always be equal to zero. This is known as Zero Product Property.

So, if the product of x and y is equal to 0 there are two possibilities:

Both x and y are equal to 0

Either x or y must be equal to 0

Note that the condition both x and y are equal to zero is not a must condition, because even if one of them is equal to zero, the entire expression will be equal to zero.

Hence, the condition which has to be true in all cases for xy = 0 is:

either x or y must equal 0​

The number z and 0.8 are additive inverses. Drag and drop 0.8 and z to their correct positions on the number line. Drag and drop
UkoKoshka [18]

we know that

If two numbers have a sum of zero, then we say they are additive inverses.

so

z+0.8=0 -------> the sum is equal to zero

z=-0.8------> the additive inverse of z is equal to -0.8

using a graph tool

see the attached figure

Choose the point-slope form of the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (−1, 6) and has a slope
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two point form of the equation:

(y-y_1)=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\times (x-x_1)

\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=Slope=m

(y-y_1)=m\times (x-x_1)

A line passing through the point (-1,6) with slope ,m = -3.

The equation of the line will be:

y-6=(-3)(x-(-1))=(-3)(x+1)

Hence, the correct answer is option B.
