Steps Using the Quadratic Formula

Quadratic polynomial can be factored using the transformation ax^{2}+bx+c=a\left(x-x_{1}\right)\left(x-x_{2}\right), where x_{1} and x_{2} are the solutions of the quadratic equation ax^{2}+bx+c=0.

$$35x^{2}+x=0$$

All equations of the form ax^{2}+bx+c=0 can be solved using the quadratic formula: \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}. The quadratic formula gives two solutions, one when ± is addition and one when it is subtraction.

$$x=\frac{-1±\sqrt{1^{2}}}{2\times 35}$$

Take the square root of 1^{2}.

$$x=\frac{-1±1}{2\times 35}$$

Multiply 2 times 35.

$$x=\frac{-1±1}{70}$$

Now solve the equation x=\frac{-1±1}{70} when ± is plus. Add -1 to 1.

$$x=\frac{0}{70}$$

Divide 0 by 70.

$$x=0$$

Now solve the equation x=\frac{-1±1}{70} when ± is minus. Subtract 1 from -1.

$$x=-\frac{2}{70}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-2}{70} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$x=-\frac{1}{35}$$

Factor the original expression using ax^{2}+bx+c=a\left(x-x_{1}\right)\left(x-x_{2}\right). Substitute 0 for x_{1} and -\frac{1}{35} for x_{2}.

$$35x^{2}+x=35x\left(x-\left(-\frac{1}{35}\right)\right)$$

Simplify all the expressions of the form p-\left(-q\right) to p+q.

$$35x^{2}+x=35x\left(x+\frac{1}{35}\right)$$

Add \frac{1}{35} to x by finding a common denominator and adding the numerators. Then reduce the fraction to lowest terms if possible.

$$35x^{2}+x=35x\times \frac{35x+1}{35}$$

Cancel out 35, the greatest common factor in 35 and 35.

$$35x^{2}+x=x\left(35x+1\right)$$

Evaluate

$$x\left(35x+1\right)$$
