Solve for x using the Quadratic Formula: x2 + 4x + 4 = 0
-b + Vb2 - 4ac
x=
2a

x = -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, a is 1, b is 4 and c is 4.

-4 plus or minus the square root of 4^2 - 4 * 1 * 4 divided by 2 * 1 = -4 plus or minus the square root of 16 - 16 / 2 = -4 plus or minus the square root of 0 / 2 = -4 / 2 = -2.

x = -2.

Hope this helps!

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.
