Question

knowledge check
a quadratic must be in order and must be equal to zero in order to factor and use the zero product property.
true
false
check answer

Explanation:

The zero product property states that if $ab=0$, then $a=0$ or $b=0$. To apply this to a quadratic equation, the quadratic must first be rearranged into standard (ordered) form $ax^2+bx+c=0$ and set equal to zero, so factoring leads to terms whose product is zero, allowing us to solve for the variable.

Answer:

True
