Question: 1 / 410

What is the solution for x in the equation x2 + 6x = 9?

x = 3

x = -3

Option A is incorrect because it only addresses part of the equation, x2 + 6x, and does not account for the constant term of 9.

Option C is incorrect because it does not account for the positive coefficient of x, 6, and only takes into account the negative constant term.

Option D is incorrect because it does not account for the exponent of x in the quadratic equation.

The correct answer is B because it satisfies all parts of the equation by combining the integer values of 3 and -3 to solve for x.
