Answer:
x= -7 x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 8x + 7 = 0
Factor
What 2 numbers multiply to 7 and add to 8
7*1 = 7
7+1 = 8
(x+7)(x+1) =0
Using the zero product property
x+7 =0 x+1 = 0
x= -7 x = -1
Answer:
[tex]x = - 1 \\ x = - 7[/tex]
Answer B is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] {x}^{2} + 8x + 7 = 0\\ {x}^{2} + 7x + x + 7 = 0\\ x(x + 7) + 1(x + 7) = 0 \\ (x + 1)(x + 7) = 0[/tex]
[tex]x + 1 = 0 \\ x = - 1[/tex]
[tex]x + 7 = 0 \\ x = - 7[/tex]
hope this helps
