Can someone solve xsquared+4x+5 please?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(x+5)(x-1) which would then equal. -5 and 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[x^{2}+4x+5\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Complete the square (x+2)^2 + 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[x=-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4(a timesc)}\] a would be the x^2 b would be the value with x and c is the one without the value

OpenStudy (anonymous):

.......it would be easier for them to foil.....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is so easy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and all of that would be divided by 2a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you don't foil that.. x squared+4x+5 you find the gcf that goes into 4x which then would add up to 4 and when you multiply you would get 5 and the answer is (x-1) (x-5) the (x) part is coming from the x2... i have it written out if you want a picture of it..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

....how does -1 and -5 equal positive 4??
