50x- x^2
=x(50-x)
= product of 2 linear factors
zeros are 0 and 50= x intercepts or roots
or
you could rewrite it in vertex form
-(x^2-50x + 25^2) + 25^2
= -(x-25)^2 + 625
with vertex = (25,625) = max point of a downward opening parabola
= -(x-25)(x-25) + 624
where (x-25)^2 is the product or square of 2 linear factors x-25 and x-25
