Answer

Options C and F are correct.

x² + 6x + 9 = 25

(x + 3)² = 25

are both equivalent to

x² + 6x = 16

Step-by-step explanation

The equations that are equivalent to x² + 6x = 16 will all have to reduce to this exact equation on simplification.

x² + 6x + 9 = 0

Option A is not correct as this equation isn't equal to the equation given in the question.

x² + 6x + 9 = 16

x² + 6x = 16 - 9

x² + 6x = 7

Option B is not correct as this equation isn't equal to the equation given in the question.

x² + 6x + 9 = 25

x² + 6x = 25 - 9

x² + 6x = 16

This option C is corect as it matches the equation given in the quesion.

(x + 3)² = 0

x² + 6x + 9 = 0

Option D is not correct as this equation isn't equal to the equation given in the question.

(x + 3)² = 16

x² + 6x + 9 = 16

x² + 6x = 16 - 9

x² + 6x = 7

Option E is not correct as this equation isn't equal to the equation given in the question.

(x + 3)² = 25

x² + 6x + 9 = 25

x² + 6x = 25 - 9

x² + 6x = 16

This option F is corect as it matches the equation given in the quesion.

Hope this Helps!!!
