Answer:

x= -7           x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= x^2 + 5x – 14

To find the x intercepts, set the function equal to zero

0 = x^2 + 5x – 14

Factor

What two numbers multiply to -14 and add to 5

7*-2 = -14

7+-2 = 5

0= (x+7) (x-2)

Using the zero product property

x+7 =0      x-2 =0

x= -7           x = 2
