When $`P(x) = 0`$, that means it is the break-even point for a value of $`x`$ (no profit, no loss).
$`2k^2 + 12k - 10 = 0 \implies k^2 -6k + 5 = 0`$

$`\because \dfrac{1}{3}`$ and $`\dfrac{-2}{3}`$ are the roots of a quadratic equation, that must mean that $`(x-\dfrac{1}{3})(x-\dfrac{2}{3})`$ is a quadratic equation that
gives those roots.
