Question

Can you please give me the answer

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

Given

x² + 2x + 1 = 17

Note that the quadratic on the left side is a perfect square, that is

(x + 1)² = 17 ( take the square root of both sides )

`√(17)` ( subtract 1 from both sides )

x = - 1 ±
`√(17)` → B

Answer 2

Your answer should be B. x + -1 +- √17
