Answer:

you add the 11 back to the other side making it x^2+12x+11=0

then you factor it

(x+11)(x+1)

you should know what to do from here

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x2 + 12x = –11

x2 + 12x +36 = –11 + 36

(x+6)^2 = -11 + 36 = 25 = (+/- 5)^2

x+6 = +/- 5

x+6 = +5  => x=-1

x+6 = -5  => x = -11

So the solution set is S = {-1, -11}
