Answer:

x=-5   x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x^2 + 9x + 20

We need to factor the equation

What 2 numbers multiply to 20 and add to 9

4*5 = 20

4+5 =9

y=(x+5) (x+4)

To find the zero's we set the equation equal to zero

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

Using the zero product property

x+5 = 0   x+4=0

x=-5   x=-4
