Product=7
sum=8
\(x^{2} +x+7x+7=0\)
x(x+1)+7(x+1)=0
(x+7)(x+1)=0
x=-7, -1

MrRoyal

The solution to the equation is x = -1 and x = -7

How to determine the solution?

The equation is given as:

x^2 + 8x + 7 = 0

Expand the equation

x^2 + x + 7x + 7 = 0

Factorize the equation

(x + 1)(x + 7) = 0

Solve for x

x = -1 and x = -7

Hence, the solution to the equation is x = -1 and x = -7
