This is a bad way to say it:
--
(x+1)=-1 as a zero.
--

Just say, either x+1 is a factor of f; or say that -1 is a zero of f.


-1   |   2   -4   -5   1
     |
     |       -2    6   -1
     |__________________________
        2   -6     1    0

and next yhou want to factorize or find zeros of the quadratic factor.

Zeros for the quadratic factor
