Write down the quadratic equation whose roots are x=-7 and x=-1, and the coefficient of x^2 is 1.
Enter your answer in the form "x^2 + bx + c = 0".
Write down the quadratic equation whose roots are x=-7 and x=-1, and the coefficient of x^2 is 1.
Enter your answer in the form "x^2 + bx + c = 0".
Since the roots are x = –7 and x = –1 then
the associated factors are (x + 7) and (x + 1) respectively.
which makes the equation x2 + 8x + 7
