Given:

The factors of the quadratic function g(x) are (5x-1) and (x+4).

To find:

The solutions to the equation g(x)=0.

Solution:

If the factors of the quadratic function g(x) are (5x-1) and (x+4), then the function is defined as:

[tex]g(x)=(5x-1)(x+4)[/tex]

We need to find the solutions to the equation g(x)=0. So,

[tex]g(x)=0[/tex]

[tex](5x-1)(x+4)=0[/tex]

Using zero product property, we get

[tex]5x-1=0[/tex] and [tex]x+4=0[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex] and [tex]x=-4[/tex]

Therefore, the solutions to the equation g(x)=0 are [tex]x=\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex] and [tex]x=-4[/tex].
