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​

A trapezoid has a height of 8 cm and bases with lengths of 14 cm and 8 cm. Tina says the area of the trapezoid is 176 cm2.
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's do this properly:

                                 

Area of trapezoid =  average length times height.

Here,

Area = (1/2)(8 cm + 14 cm)(8 cm), or

         = (11 cm)(8 cm) = 88 cm^2

It appears that Tina forgot to divide the sum of 14 cm and 8 cm by 2.  Thus, her answer is twice as large as it should be.
