Question

Which shows the unsimplified solution for x^2 + 8x + 6 = 0?

answer choices r the bottom

Answer 1

`x^(2) + 8x + 6 = 0 \\x = \frac{-(8) +/- \sqrt{(8)^(2) - 4(1)(6)}}{2(1)} \\x = (-8 +/- √(64 - 24))/(2) \\x = (-8 +/- √(40))/(2) \\x = (-8 +/- 2√(10))/(2) \\x = -4 +/- √(10)`

`x = -4 + √(10)`
`x = -4 - √(10)`

It is equal to D.
