Answer:

B. -2√2 - 5

C. 2√2 - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The left side of the equation is already a perfect square.

Let us factorize it first.

x²+10x+25=8

x(x+5)+x(x+5)=8

(x+5)²=8

Let us take the square roots of both sides.

x+5=±√8

But √8=±2√2

Therefore in surd form, the two solutions become:

x+5=2√2 or x+5=-2√2

Therefore x= 2√2-5 and -2√2+-5
