Byron Herman · Answer 1

hello:

s² + 5s + 4 = 0

(s+1) (s+4) = 0

s+1 = 0 or s+4=0

s = - 1 or s = - 4

Jermaine Ibarra · Answer 2

Polynomial equation solverStandard form:s2 + 5s + 4 = 0Factorization: (s + 4) (s + 1) = 0Solutions based on factorization: s + 4 = 0 ⇒ s1 = - 4 s + 1 = 0 ⇒ s2 = - 1 Extrema:Min = (-2.5, - 2.25) - 4-2-4-22 x:-4y:0
