Answer:
The zeros are x =5, -7/2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the zeros, set the expression equal to zero
(x-5)(2x+7) =0
Using the zero product property
(x-5)=0 (2x+7)=0
Solve each equation
x=5 2x = -7
x=5 x = -7/2
5, -7/2
[tex]x - 5 = 0 = 5\\\\2x + 7 = 0\\2x + -7 = 0\\\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{-7}{2}\\ x = \frac{-7}{2}\\x = -\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
Thus,
x = 5
x = -7/2
