Explanation:

I'll do 2.

Alright,Alex let say we have factored a quadratic into two binomial, for example


(5x + 3)(6x - 4)

If we set both of those equal to zero


(5x + 3)(6x + 4) = 0

We can used the zero product property in this case to find the roots of the quadratic equation.

This means that


if \: ab = 0 \: then \: a = 0 \: and \: b = 0

This means we set each binomal equal to zero to find it root.


5x + 3 = 0


5x = - 3


x = - (3)/(5)


6x + 4 = 0


6x = - 4


x = - (2)/(3)

So our roots are negative 3/5 and negative 2/3 using zero product property
