Answer:
x=-4.73 x=-1.27
Step-by-step explanation:
(x + 3)^2 - 3 = 0
Add 3 to each side
(x + 3)^2 - 3 +3= 0+3
(x + 3)^2 = 3
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x + 3)^2) =±sqrt( 3)
(x + 3) =±sqrt( 3)
Subtract 3 from each side
x + 3-3 =-3±sqrt( 3)
x = -3±sqrt( 3)
Approximating to 2 decimal places
x=-1.27 x=-4.73
