Question

Rewrite the quadratic function in intercept or factored form
y=x^2+7x+10

Answer 1

Answer:
`y=(x+2)(x+5)`

Explanation:

1. You have the following the quadratic equation given in the problem above:

`y=x^(2)+7x+10`

2. To factor the quadratic function, you must find two number that when you add them you obtain 7 and when you multiply them you obtain 10. These numbers would be 2 and 5.

3. Therefore, keeping this on mind, you can rewrite the function in the following intercept form:

`y=(x+2)(x+5)`
