Answer:

Since that is a quadratic equation, it will have 2 "x" intercepts.

x^2+7x+2

a = 1   b = 7   c = 2

You would solve for "x" using the quadratic formula.

x = [ -b +- sq root (b ^ 2 - 4 a c) ] / 2 a

x = [ -7 +- sq root (7^2 - 4*1*2) ] / 2 * 1

x = [ -7 +- sq root (49 -8) ] / 2

x1 = [-7 + 6.4031242] / 2

x1 =  -.29844

x2 = [-7 - 6.4031242] / 2

x2 = -6.7016
