Question

Solve the following equation x(x + 19) = -34

Answer 1

 this is your answer: x(x + 19) = -34

Answer 2

Hi there,

x(x + 19) = -34

I'm going to solve your equation step-by-step.x(x + 19) = −34

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.x2 + 19x = −34

Step 2: Subtract -34 from both sides.x2 + 19x − (−34) = −34 − (−34)

x2 + 19x + 34 = 0

Step 3: Factor left side of equation.(x + 2) (x + 17) = 0

Step 4: Set factors equal to 0.x + 2 = 0 or x + 17 = 0

x = −2 or x = −17

Answer:x = −2 or x = −17

Hope this helps! :)
