Answer:
x= -2, -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide both sides by 9
(x+4)^2=4
Take sqrt from both sides.
√(x+4)^2=√4
x+4= + or - 2
Because when taking √ of a perfect square it's gonna be + or -. Because -2 • -2 is 4. And 2•2 is also 4.
So you break it into two possible equations.
x+4=2 and x+4=-2
Subtract x from both sides on both equations
x=-2 x=-6
Hope this helps
