Given the quadratic equation:

5x + x^2 = 0

Determine its factored form.

Solution:

In order to determine the factored form of a linear equation, quadratic equation, cubic equation, and so on, we look for the common terms inside the expression. In our case we have the common term x, therefore we can factor out x in the equation.

= 5x + x^2 

= x(5+ x)

Final answer:

=x(5+x)
