Q. Find the zeros of the function. Enter the solutions from least to greatest. h(x)=(−4x−5)(−x+5)
Identify Zeros: Identify the zeros of the function by setting each factor equal to zero.For the first factor, we have −4x−5=0.To solve for x, we add 5 to both sides of the equation.−4x−5+5=0+5−4x=5Now, we divide both sides by −4 to isolate x.−4x/−4=5/−4x=−5/4
Solve First Factor: Solve for the zero from the second factor, which is −x+5=0. To solve for x, we subtract 5 from both sides of the equation. −x+5−5=0−5−x=−5 Now, we multiply both sides by −1 to isolate x. −x×−1=−5×−1x=5
Solve Second Factor: Arrange the solutions from least to greatest.The solutions we found are x=−45 and x=5.Since -\frac{5}{4} < 5, the solutions in order from least to greatest are:x=−45,x=5
