Question

An equation has solutions of m = _5 and m = 9. Which could be the equation?

Answer 1

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. The equation (m + 5)(m - 9) = 0 has solutions of m = -5 and m = 9. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions. Thank you.

Answer 2

Answer:

A. $(m+5)(m-9)=0$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that an equation has solutions of $m=-5$ and $m=9$. We are asked to the equation, which represents these solutions.

Let us check our given choices:

A. $(m+5)(m-9)=0$

Using zero product property, we will get:

$m+5=0\text{ (or) }m-9=0$

$m+5-5=0-5\text{ (or) }m-9+9=0+9$

$m=-5\text{ (or) }m=9$

Therefore, option A is the correct choice.
