Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A product of two (or more) factor can be zero if and only if at least one of the factors is zero.
In other words, you cannot multiply two non-zero real numbers, and have zero as a result.
So, if we want the product of these two factors to be zero, at least one of them has to be zero.
The first factor is zero if
x-2=0 x=2
The second factor is zero if
x + 5 = 0 x= -5
