What are the solutions to the equation (x-6)(x+8)=0?

Answer:

x = 6, -8

Step-by-step explanation:

If (x - 6)(x + 8) = 0, that would imply that either (x - 6) or (x + 8) would equal zero. Using this, we can find that solving the two equations:

x - 6 = 0

and

x + 8 = 0

would yield the two solutions to the equation.

x - 6 = 0

Add 6 to both sides of the equation.

x = 6

So one of the solutions would be x = 6.

x + 8 = 0

Subtract 8 from both sides of the equation.

x = -8

So the other solution would be x = -8.

The two solutions are x = 6 and x = -8.

I hope you find my answer and explanation to be helpful. Happy studying.
