You can put this solution on YOUR website!
factoring x^2 + 6x + 5, we arrive at:
\n" ); document.write( "y = (x+1)(x+5)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "This means the intercepts will be -1 and -5
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( " $\"graph%28500%2C500%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2Cx%2Ax%2B6%2Ax%2B5%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "The vertex is at x= -b/2a = -6/2 = -3.
\n" ); document.write( "When x = -3, y = -4, which is the point: (-3,-4).
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "By inspecting the graph, we can see this fits. \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
