I should have finished it  (1)  25a+5b+c=−3(4a+2b+c) ⇔ 37a+11b+4c=0  (2)  16a−4b+c=0  (1)  ⇒ c=−((37a+11b)/4)  ⇒ (2)  ((27)/4)a−((27)/4)b=0 ⇒ b=a ⇒ c=−12a  ⇒ f(x)=a(x^2 +x−12)=a(x−3)(x+4)  ⇒ zeros are −4 and 3

$$\mathrm{I}\:\mathrm{should}\:\mathrm{have}\:\mathrm{finished}\:\mathrm{it} \\ $$$$\left(\mathrm{1}\right)\:\:\mathrm{25}{a}+\mathrm{5}{b}+{c}=−\mathrm{3}\left(\mathrm{4}{a}+\mathrm{2}{b}+{c}\right)\:\Leftrightarrow\:\mathrm{37}{a}+\mathrm{11}{b}+\mathrm{4}{c}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\left(\mathrm{2}\right)\:\:\mathrm{16}{a}−\mathrm{4}{b}+{c}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\left(\mathrm{1}\right)\:\:\Rightarrow\:{c}=−\frac{\mathrm{37}{a}+\mathrm{11}{b}}{\mathrm{4}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\left(\mathrm{2}\right)\:\:\frac{\mathrm{27}}{\mathrm{4}}{a}−\frac{\mathrm{27}}{\mathrm{4}}{b}=\mathrm{0}\:\Rightarrow\:{b}={a}\:\Rightarrow\:{c}=−\mathrm{12}{a} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:{f}\left({x}\right)={a}\left({x}^{\mathrm{2}} +{x}−\mathrm{12}\right)={a}\left({x}−\mathrm{3}\right)\left({x}+\mathrm{4}\right) \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{zeros}\:\mathrm{are}\:−\mathrm{4}\:\mathrm{and}\:\mathrm{3} \\ $$

25a+5b+c=−3(4a+2b+c)  ⇒  37a+11b+4c=0  (c/a)=−((11)/4)((b/a))−((37)/4)  x=−(b/(2a))±((√(b^2 −4ac))/(2a))  x=−(b/(2a))±(√((1/4)((b/a))^2 −(c/a)))  x=(b/a){−(1/2)±(√((1/4)+((11)/(4(b/a)))+((37)/(4(b/a)^2 )))) }  say  (b/a)=p  (((−4)/p)+(1/2))^2 =(1/4)+((11)/(4p))+((37)/(4p^2 ))  ((16)/p^2 )−(4/p)=((11)/(4p))+((37)/(4p^2 ))  ((27)/(4p^2 ))−((27)/(4p))=0  ⇒  p=1  x={−(1/2)±(√((1/4)+((11)/4)+((37)/4))) }  x=−(1/2)±(7/2)   x=−4 or 3  other point on x-axis is  (3,0)
