Question

Sovle for x in the equation x2+14+17 =-96

Answer 1

Solve for x in the equation x2+14x+17=-96.

x=-7+_4/6i

x = –7 ± 8i

x+7+_4/6i

x = 7 ± 8i

Answer 2

Hello!

You solve this algebraically

$x^{2} + 14 + 17 = -96$

Combine like terms

$x^{2} +31 = -96$

Subtract 31 from both sides

$x^{2} =-127$

Take the square root of both sides

x = $\sqrt{127} i$

Hope this helps!
