first off, let's convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction and then proceed, let's notice that by PEMDAS or order of operations, the multiplication is done first, and then any sums.

- 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>
