I totally forgot that I am having meeting at my work place. All of sudden, I remembered that meeting through a hint given by my colleague while having discussion about our project work. I have to present a topic which I didn't prepare yet. Meeting is at 1.15pm. OMG! It's already 12.30 pm. Within few minutes I went to the meeting place with my topic. When I entered the meeting hall, the time was 12.53pm. I was happy to know that I arrived 22 minutes earlier.
The zero product property tells us that if we have
xy=0, then we can assume that x and y both equal 0
so
(4k+5)(k+7)=0
we can assume that 4k+5=0 and k+7=0
so
4k+5=0
minus 5 both sides
4k=-5
divide both sides by 4
k=-5/4
k+7=0
minus 7 both sides
k=-7
k=-5/4 or -7
Answer:
x=6
