Answer:

To find the solution of the equation,

The given equation is,


x^2+4x=-12

By completing square method,


x^2+4x+4=-12+4

we get,


(x+2)^2=-8

Taking square roots on both sides we get,


(x+2)=\pm\sqrt[]{-8}

Square root of negative number cannot be defined, Hence there is no solution.

Answer is: option: (B)

When completing the square, the equation obtained is


(x+2)^2=-8

There is no solution because the square root of a negative number is undefined.
