Question

Solve for x. x^2 + 4x + 45 = 0

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is -5 and -9

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer here, first factor the equation.

x^2 + 4x + 45 = 0

(x + 9)(x + 5) = 0

Now set each parenthesis equal to 0 and solve.

x + 9 = 0

x = -9

x + 5 = 0

x = -5

Answer 2

x2+4x−45=0

Factor x2+4x−45
