Answer:

x = -2, -8.

Step-by-step explanation:

x =[(-b +/- √(b^2 - 4ac)] / 2a

x^2 + 10x + 16 = 0

Here a = 1, b = 10 and c = 16, so substituting in the formula:

x = [-10 +/- √(10^2 - 4*1*16)] / 2

= (-10 +/- √36)/2

= (-10 +/- 6)/2

= -4/2, -16/2

= -2, -8.

Answer:

x = - 8 , x = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 10x + 16 = 0

with a = 1, b = 10 , c = 16

then using the given quadratic formula

x = [tex]\frac{-10+/-\sqrt{10^2-(4(1)(16)} }{2}[/tex]

  = [tex]\frac{-10+/-\sqrt{100-64} }{2}[/tex]

  = [tex]\frac{-10+/-\sqrt{36} }{2}[/tex]

  = [tex]\frac{-10+/- 6}{2}[/tex]

then

x = [tex]\frac{-10-6}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-16}{2}[/tex] = - 8

x = [tex]\frac{-10+6}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-4}{2}[/tex] = - 2
