x22x4=0

Explanation:

given the zeros of a polynomial say

x=a and x=b then the factors are

(xa) and (xb)

and the polynomial can be written as

f(x)=k(xa)(xb)k is a multiplier

here x=1±5

(x(1+5))(x(15)) are the factors

f(x)=k(x15)(x1+5)

let k=1

f(x)=(x1)2(5)2

f(x)=x22x+15

f(x)=x22x4

to find the zeros solve x22x4=0
