If the factors are a and b then we can create the equation as :


(x-a)(x-b)=0

Here we are given the solutions as 1 and -1.

Let us plug them in the above equation and try to make an equation using it.

let a=1 and b=-1

So we have,


(x-1)(x-(-1))=0

Simplifying,


(x-1)(x+1)=0

Answer:

The equation with solutions 1 and -1 is:


(x-1)(x+1)=0
