In this exercise we can use the technique for writing equations in factorized form. Consider in our case the equation


\displaystyle \left( x+7 \right)\left( x+7 \right)=0


This equation has only \displaystyle x=-\text{7} as a root because both factors become zero only when \displaystyle x=-\text{7}. In addition, it is an second-degree equation, which we can clearly see if the left-hand side is expanded:


\displaystyle \left( x+7 \right)\left( x+7 \right)=x^{2}+14x+49


Thus, one answer is the equation \displaystyle x^{2}+14x+49=0.

NOTE: All second-degree equations which have \displaystyle x=-\text{7} as a root can be written as


\displaystyle ax^{2}+14ax+49a=0


where \displaystyle a is a non-zero constant.
