Answer: -1 and 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 4x = 5 : Move the constant to the left.

x^2 - 4x - 5 = 0 : Rewrite the expression.

x^2 + x - 5x - 5 = 0 : Factor the expressions.

x(x+1) - 5(x+1) = 0 : Factor the expression.

(x+1)(x-5) = 0 : Seperate into possible cases.

x + 1 = 0, x - 5 = 0 : Solve the equations.

x = -1, x = 5 : The equation has 2 solutions.

madam [21]
The first side is 10 inches
the side parallel to this is (10×2)= 20 inches
Height is half the length=1/2×20=10 inches
The area of trapezium is given by:
Area=1/2×h×(a+b)
where a and b are the sides, h is the height. Thus the area will be:
Area=1/2×10×(20+10)
=1/2×10×30
