Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Need the choices.....

essentially, you can multiply this equation by any constant to get an equivalent equation with the same solutions.

x^2 + 8x + 2 = 0 multiply both sides by '3' to get

3x^2 + 24 x + 6 = 0 <===== this will have the same solutions

or this one:

x^2 + 8x + 2 = 0 Multiply both sides by '6' to get

6x^2 + 48x + 12 = 0 <===== this will have the same solutions also

etc....
