Find the zeros of the function.
Write the smaller solution first, and the larger solution second.
h (x)=(-4x -5)(-x +5)h(x)=(−4x−5)(−x+5)h,

Smaller X:
Larger X:

Answer 1

Smaller x: 1.20

Larger x: 5

Explanation:

The zeros of a function h(x) are the values of x for whom h equals zero.

So, in your problem, we have

h (x) = (-4x -5)(-x +5)

h(x) = 0 when either(-4x+5) = 0 or (-x +5) = 0. So, we solve for both cases

Case 1

-4x+5 = 0

-4x = -5 *(-1)

4x = 5

x = 5/4

x = 1.20

Case 2

-x +5 = 0

-x = -5 *(-1)

x = 5
