(5+x)(4x+1)=0

Solution for (5+x)(4x+1)=0 equation:

Simplifying
(5 + x)(4x + 1) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(5 + x)(1 + 4x) = 0

Multiply (5 + x) * (1 + 4x)
(5(1 + 4x) + x(1 + 4x)) = 0
((1 * 5 + 4x * 5) + x(1 + 4x)) = 0
((5 + 20x) + x(1 + 4x)) = 0
(5 + 20x + (1 * x + 4x * x)) = 0
(5 + 20x + (1x + 4x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 20x + 1x = 21x
(5 + 21x + 4x2) = 0

Solving
