Answer:

(-5, 0)

(-1, 0)

Explanation:

x-intercepts are points where the graph intersects the x-axis (or when y = 0)

Step 1: Write out function

f(x) = x² + 6x + 5

Step 2: Factor

f(x) = (x + 5)(x + 1)

Step 3: Find binomial roots

x + 5 = 0

x = -5

x + 1 = 0

x = -1

Alternatively, you can graph the function and analyze the graph for x-intercepts:
