Answer:

(5x+1)(2x+1)(x+4)

Explanation:

The factored from of a polynomial can be found from the zeros or x-intercepts of the graph.

The x-intercepts here are x= -1/5, x=-1/2 and x= -4. You can find the factors by finding the expression which solves for each value.

Since x = -1/5 then the factor is 5x+1.

Since x = -1/2 then the factor is 2x+1.

Since x = -4 then the factor is x+4.

So the factored form is (5x+1)(2x+1)(x+4).
