We want to solve
x² + 8x + 7 = 0
Factorize the left side.
x² + 8x + 7 = (x + 1)(x + 7)
Therefore
(x + 1)(x + 7) = 0
When (x + 1) = 0, obtain x = -1.
When (x + 7) = 0, obtain x = -7.
The solutions are x = -1 and x = -7
Answer: x = -7 and x = -1.
x² + 8x + 7 = 0
Factorize the left side.
x² + 8x + 7 = (x + 1)(x + 7)
Therefore
(x + 1)(x + 7) = 0
When (x + 1) = 0, obtain x = -1.
When (x + 7) = 0, obtain x = -7.
The solutions are x = -1 and x = -7
Answer: x = -7 and x = -1.
