Question 953849
x^2+6x+5
{{{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 {{{(x+1)(x+5)}}}.
Does that work to give the product given?


{{{(x+1)(x)+(x+1)(5)}}}
continue working with that to finish checking.  You would do the distributive property again.


{{{x^2+x+5x+5}}}
{{{x^2+6x+5}}}
