-7x^2 + 140x - 700 = 0
To solve the quadratic equation -7x^2 + 140x - 700 = 0 by factoring, we need to find two numbers that multiply to give -7 * -700 = 4900, and add up to 140 (the coefficient of the x term).
Factoring the quadratic equation, we can rewrite it as:
-7(x^2 - 20x + 100) = 0
Now let's factor the expression within the parentheses:
-7(x - 10)(x - 10) = 0
Setting each factor equal to zero, we have two possible solutions:
x - 10 = 0
x = 10
Therefore, the equation has one solution: x = 10.
