Given:

Quadratic polynomial: y2 + 7y + 10

Formula used:

To find zeroes of ax2 + bx + c, use factor method: Find two numbers whose sum = b and product = c

Calculation:

We need two numbers whose sum = 7 and product = 10

Numbers are 5 and 2

So, y2 + 7y + 10 = (y + 5)(y + 2)

Zeroes are y = -5 and y = -2

∴ The zeroes of the polynomial are -5 and -2.
