Q. Find the zeros of the function. Enter the solutions from least to greatest.h(x)=(−4x−5)(−x+5), lesser x=□, greater x=□
Factored function: Factored function: h(x)=(−4x−5)(−x+5)To find the zeros of the function, we need to set h(x) equal to zero and solve for x.0=(−4x−5)(−x+5)
First zero: First zero: Solve −4x−5=0 Add 5 to both sides of the equation: −4x−5+5=0+5 −4x=5 Now, divide both sides by −4: x=−45 x=−45 or x=−1.25
Second zero: Second zero: Solve −x+5=0 Subtract 5 from both sides of the equation: −x+5−5=0−5 −x=−5 Now, multiply both sides by −1: x=5
Zeros of the function: We have found the two zeros of the function h(x):x=−1.25 and x=5List them in ascending order:x=−1.25,5
