Q. Solve for h. 23h2−49h=0Write each solution as an integer, proper fraction, or improper fraction in simplest form. If there are multiple solutions, separate them with commas. h= ____
Factor GCF: Factor out the greatest common factor (GCF) from the equation 23h2−49h=0. The GCF of 23h2 and 49h is h. Factor out h from each term. h(23h−49)=0
Set Equal to Zero: Set each factor equal to zero and solve for h.First, set h equal to zero:h=0This is one solution.Next, set the other factor equal to zero:23h−49=0
Solve for h: Solve the equation 23h−49=0 for h. Add 49 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with h. 23h−49+49=0+4923h=49 Now, divide both sides by 23 to solve for h. h=234923h−49=00 Since we need the answer as an integer, proper fraction, or improper fraction, we can leave h as the fraction 23h−49=02, which is already in simplest form.
