Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 2x + 1 = 17

x^2 + 2x = 17 - 1

x^2 + 2x = 16

x^2 + 2x + 1 = 16 + 1

(x + 1)(x + 1) = 17

(x + 1)^2 = 17

x + 1 = sqrt 17

x = -1 (+ - ) sqrt 17

x = -1 + sqrt 17 or x = -1 - sqrt 17 <===

Answer:

6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

when you graph the coordinates on a graph they are straight side ways from each other. then you count how (0,4) is 1 unit, (1,4) is 2 units, (2,4) is 3 units, (3,4) is 4 units, (4,4) is 5 units, and (5,4) is 6 units.

therefore the answer is 6 units.
