You would simply add the last two equations together. If v=2x+1 and t=4x-1, you can add them up. This would make 2x+1+4x-1. If you combine like terms, 1 and -1 cancel out and you are left with 6x. This means x can be anything.
- 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>
System of Linear Equations entered :
[1] 5x - 6y = 7
[2] 6x - 7y = 8
Graphic Representation of the Equations :
-6y + 5x = 7 -7y + 6x = 8
Solve equation [2] for the variable x
[2] 6x = 7y + 8
[2] x = 7y/6 + 4/3
// Plug this in for variable x in equation [1]
[1] 5•(7y/6+4/3) - 6y = 7
[1] - y/6 = 1/3
[1] - y = 2
// Solve equation [1] for the variable y
[1] y = - 2
// By now we know this much :
x = 7y/6+4/3
y = -2
// Use the y value to solve for x
x = (7/6)(-2)+4/3 = -1
