Solve x2 + 4x + 8 = 0. (2 points) 1. x equals negative 2 plus or minus 2 i 2. x equals negative 2 plus or minus 4 i 3. x equals negative 4 plus or minus 2 i 4. x equals negative 4 plus or minus 4 i

The correct answer is option #1. x = -2 +/- 2i

We can find this by using the quadratic equation, which is written below. 



Now we know the a, b and c values by looking at the equation. a is always the number attached to x^2 (which is 1), b is always the number attached to x (which is 4) and c is the number with no variable (which is 8). So we can place them in in the appropriate spots in the equation. 











-2 +/- 2i

Im pretty sure it would be 6 purple rectangles.
