Solve the quadratic equation for x. what is one of the roots? (x + 6)^2 = 49

x equals -1 and it also equals -13. They are both considered the roots.

Step-by-step

(x+6)^2= 49    to get rid of the exponent square root each side of the equation.(x+6)= √49     Find square root of 49.(x+6)= ±7        It could be positive 7 or -7 because both of them squared equal 49. Now solve for each possible equation, (x+6)= 7 and  (x+6)=-7. (x+6)=7  subtract 6 from each side.x= 1 (x+6)=-7  Subtract 6 from each side.x=-13 So the answers are -13 and 1.

The first one minimumi hope my answer you.
