Question

Which equation has the same solution as x2 + 8x – 17 = -8? Submit Answer (3-4)2 = -7 O (2+4)2 = 25 O (x – 4)2 = 25 (x - 1)² = -7 problem 3 out of max 6

Answer 1

Given

`x^2+8x-17=-8`

Procedure

`\begin{gathered} x^2+8x+16-16-17=-8 \\ (x+4)^2=16+17-8 \\ (x+4)^2=25 \end{gathered}`

The answer would be (x+4)^2 = 25
