$$x^2+7x+1=-9$$$$x^2+7x+1+9=-9+9$$$$x^2+7x+10=0$$
Now pick two factors of 10 that add to 7.  Call them $a,b$.  Your factoring is$$x^2+7x+10 = (x+a)(x+b)$$

anonymous · Answer

ugh call me a a cab and you got yourself a deal lol.. and whpalmer would it be 2 and 5?

whpalmer4 · Answer

Let's check!

$$(x+2)(x+5) = x(x+5) + 2(x+5) = x*x + 5*x + 2*x + 2*5$$$$ = x^2 + 7x + 10\checkmark $$

anonymous · Answer

the biggest problem i have is i do not know how to write it

anonymous · Answer

do i write it like (x+5) (x+2) -_-

whpalmer4 · Answer

Yes, that's your two linear equations.  No exponents other than 1 on the $x$'s, so they are linear.

whpalmer4 · Answer

something like $(x^2+1)$ would not be linear.
