The equation that has the same solution as x² + 8x + 15 = -4x is x = -6± √21.
How do you solve the above equation?
Step 1 - Move terms to the left
x² + 8x + 15 = -4x
x² + 8x + 15-(-4x) = 0
Step 2 - Combine the terms
x² + 8x + 15 + 4x = 0
x² + 12x + 15 = 0
Step 3 - Apply the quadratic formula
x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac) )/ 2a
Recall that form our equation:
a = 1
b = 12
c = 15
Thus, x = (-12 √(12² - 4 * 1 *15) )/2 *1
⇒x = -6 ± √21
