(7k+1)(k+4)=0

Solution for (7k+1)(k+4)=0 equation:

Simplifying
(7k + 1)(k + 4) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(1 + 7k)(k + 4) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(1 + 7k)(4 + k) = 0

Multiply (1 + 7k) * (4 + k)
(1(4 + k) + 7k * (4 + k)) = 0
((4 * 1 + k * 1) + 7k * (4 + k)) = 0
((4 + 1k) + 7k * (4 + k)) = 0
(4 + 1k + (4 * 7k + k * 7k)) = 0
(4 + 1k + (28k + 7k2)) = 0
