Question 257978
{{{x^2+5x+5=x+1}}}
<pre><font size = 4 color = "indigo"><b>
This has an {{{x^2}}} term in it so it must be done by
getting a 0 on the right side by adding {{{-x-1}}} to both sides:

{{{x^2+4x+4=0}}}

Then we factor the left side:

{{{(x+2)(x+2)=0}}}

Use the zero-factor property

{{{x+2=0}}} gives solution {{{x=-2}}}

{{{x+2=0}}} gives solution {{{x=-2}}}

So both solutions are the same. So there
is just one solution  {{{x=-2}}}
