Answer :

Given:

given equation is (x-8) (x+7) = 0.

Find:

we have to solve the equation by zero product principle.

Explanation:

if two factors of an equation is zero, then by zero product principle, either first factor is equal to zero or second factor is equal to zero.

Therefore,

for (x-8) (x+7) = 0

either x- 8 = 0 or x + 7 = 0

either x = 8 or x = -7

Therefore, x =8 . -7 are the solutions.
