Quadratic Equation
True [87]

Explanation:

This is a product of two expressions that is equal to zero. Note that any xxx value that makes either (x-1)(x−1)left parenthesis, x, minus, 1, right parenthesis or (x+3)(x+3)left parenthesis, x, plus, 3, right parenthesis zero, will make their product zero.

(x−1)

↙

x−1=0

x=1

(x+3)=0

↘

x+3=0

x=−3

Substituting either x=1x=1x, equals, 1 or x=-3x=−3x, equals, minus, 3 into the equation will result in the true statement 0=0, equals, 0, so they are both solutions to the equation.

How Is the dead sea changing
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

The dead sea is shrinking, and as it recedes, the fresh water aquifers along the perimeter of the lake are receding along with it. As this fresh water diffuses into salt deposits beneath the surface of the shoreline, the water slowly dissolves the deposits until the earth above collapses without warning.
