The answer would be 0.0043478261
- Zero Product Property: if a × b = 0, then either a or b = 0 or both a and b = 0.
(Make sure to set f(x) to zero)
So for this equation, I will be factoring by grouping. Firstly, what two terms have a product of -5x^2 and a sum of 4x? That would be 5x and -x. Replace 4x with 5x - x: 
Next, factor 5x^2 + 5x and -x - 1 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity on the inside: 
Now you can rewrite the equation as: 
Now apply zero product property to the factors to solve for x:

<u>The x-intercepts are (1/5 ,0) and (-1,0).</u>
Answer:
700.4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
This involves two similar triangles.
Both triangles are right triangles.
One has legs measuring 1 cm and 30 cm. We can find the hypotenuse by using the Pythagorean theorem.
(1 cm)^2 + (30 cm)^2 = c^2
c^2 = 901 cm^2
c = sqrt(901) cm
The second triangle has one leg with length 700 cm. This leg corresponds to the 30-cm leg in the other triangle. Since the triangles are similar, we can use a proportion to find the hypotenuse of the second triangle.
(30 cm)/(700 cm) = [sqrt(901) cm]/x
3/70 = sqrt(901) cm/x
3x = 70 * sqrt(901) cm
x = 70 * sqrt(901) cm/3
x = 700.4 cm
Answer: 700.4 cm
