Question 138566: Can you help me solve the following-
Solve 8x+x(x-5)=0
I need to find the x-intercepts of f(x)=8x+x(x-5)
a.)what are the solutions?
x=
b.)What are the x-intercepts?

Solve 8x+x(x-5)=0
then x(8+x-5)=0
then x(3+x)=0 then x=0 or x=-3
f(x)=8x+x(x-5)
the x-intercepts of f(x)are the points P=(0,0) and Q=(-3,0)because roots are 0 and -3
