You can put this solution on YOUR website! What is the solution set of y = x^2 + 2x + 7 and y = x + 7?
 ----
 Substitute for "y" and solve for "x"::
 x^2 + 2x + 7 = x + 7
 ----
 x^2 + x = 0
 -----
 Factor:
 x(x+1) = 0
 x = 0 or x = -1
 ----------
 Solve for "y":
 If x = 0, y = 0+7 = 7
 If x = 1, y = 1+7 = 8

 Cheers,
