Answer 1

Answer:

Two solutions

X=-1

X=-3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

x= -1 and x= -3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! Solutions is just another fancy word for saying "roots", or basically where the function intercepts the x-axis.

The Zero Property Theorem allows us to seperate our binomials and set both of them equal to 0. And then, we just solve it like a regular equation.

2x+2=0

2x=-2

x=-1

5x+3=0

5x=-3

x=-3/5
