Question

Which of the following are solutions to the equation below?


4x^2 + 4x + 1 = 9


Check all that apply

Answer 1

Answer:

Option B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 9 from both sides :

4x² + 4x - 8 = 0

Divide both sides by 4 :

x² + x - 2 = 0

Factorise using factorisation method :

x² - x + 2x -2 = 0

x(x - 1) +2(x-1) = 0

(x+2)(x-1) = 0

Solve for x

x +2 = 0   OR     x - 1 = 0        

x = -2       OR     x = 1

Answer will be Option B and D

Hope this helped and have a good day
