Answer:
first, subtract 17 on both sides: x²+2x-16=0
this cannot be factored, so use the quadratic formula to solve for x:
b²-4ac=2²-4(10(-16)=4+64=68
√68=2√17
so x=(-2+2√17)/2 or x=(-2-2√17)/2
x=-1+√17 or x=-1-√17
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
First we need to work out the parenthesis, which can for instance be done using rainbow technique.
Now subtract 3 from both sides.
And finally add 3x to both sides.
The 4th answer choice is correct.
The answer to the question that needs to go on the top is 33
