Answer
Step-by-step explanation: help
There are several ways in which we could answer this question. My choice is to actually solve the given quadratic equation, x^2 + 4x + 4 = 12.
Note that x^2 + 4x + 4 is a perfect square. Thus,
x^2 + 4x + 4 = 12 is the same as (x+2)^2 = 12, so that
x+2 = plus or minus √3*√4, or plus or minus 2√3.
Thus, the two real, unequal roots are
x = -2 + 2√3 and x = -2 - 2√3. These correspond to answer choices C and E.
. The answer is 21.

Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
The set of perfect squares includes {0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, ...}.
Subtracting a couple of the elements, we get ...
4 - 1 = 3 . . . . not a member of the set
The set is NOT CLOSED under subtraction.
