Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 6x + 9 = 2

(x + 3)² = 2

x + 3 = ±sqrt(2)

x = -3 ± sqrt(2)

so, B and D are correct.

control :

(-3 + sqrt(2))² + 6(-3 + sqrt(2)) + 9 = 2

9 + 2 - 6sqrt(2) - 18 + 6sqrt(2) + 9 = 2

2 = 2

correct

(-3 - sqrt(2))² + 6(-3 - sqrt(2)) + 9 = 2

9 + 2 + 6sqrt(2) - 18 - 6sqrt(2) + 9 = 2

2 = 2

correct

(3 + sqrt(2))² + 6(3 + sqrt(2)) + 9 = 2

9 + 2 + 6sqrt(2) + 18 + 6sqrt(2) + 9 = 2

38 + 12sqrt(2) = 2

wrong.

(3 - sqrt(2))² + 6(3 - sqrt(2)) + 9 = 2

9 + 2 - 6sqrt(2) + 18 - 6sqrt(2) + 9 = 2

38 - 12sqrt(2) = 2

wrong.

Solve: s = 4 + √ s + 2<br><br> a. s=2<br> b. s=7<br> c. s=2 or s=7<br> d. no real solution
lyudmila [28]

Rewrite s = 4 + sqrt(s+2) as s-4 = sqrt(s+2)


Square both sides: s^2 - 8s + 16 = s + 2


combine like terms: s^2 - 9s + 14 = 0


Factor this: (s-7)(s-2)=0


Solve for s: s={7, 2}
