Solve for .
Write the smaller solution first, and the larger solution second.
(x-7)(-4x - 2) = 0
smaller x =
larger x =

smaller x =-1/2

larger x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-7)(-4x - 2) = 0

Using the zero product property

(x-7)=0              (-4x - 2) = 0

x-7+7 = 0+7        -4x-2-2 =0+2

x=7                         -4x =2

                               -4x/-4 = 2/-4

                                    x = -1/2

a = 3.14

b = 18

c = 18/5 or 3.6 or 3 3/5
