x^2+6x+5

Work with the factors of 5, which are 1 and 5. Try putting them into the form and test how they could be arranged to give your expected product.

(x_____1)(x_____5)

Notice that all the operation symbols shown are PLUS.
Check then for .
Does that work to give the product given?

continue working with that to finish checking. You would do the distributive property again.
