\text{Let's factor this quadratic.}\\\text{ We can start by thinking of two numbers such that,}\\\text{ if they are multiplied together, the product is 9}\\\text{if they're added together, the sum is -10, the middle term.}


\rule{300}{1.7}


\text{These numbers are -9 and -1.}\\\text{Checkup::}\\\text{-9*(-1)=9 and -9+(-1)=-10. The answer is good}


\rule{300}{1.7}


\text{Now, write these numbers as factors::}\\\text{(x-9)(x-1)=0 (make sure that the equation is \textbf{set to zero})}


\rule{300}{1.7}


\text{Now we can solve these mini equations in terms of x::}\\\text{x-9=0; \, x=9}\\\text{x-1=0; x=1}


\rule{300}{1.7}


\text{Our factors are:: \textsl{9 and 1}}
