(x+1)(x+1)=-19

Solution for (x+1)(x+1)=-19 equation:

Simplifying
(x + 1)(x + 1) = -19

Reorder the terms:
(1 + x)(x + 1) = -19

Reorder the terms:
(1 + x)(1 + x) = -19

Multiply (1 + x) * (1 + x)
(1(1 + x) + x(1 + x)) = -19
((1 * 1 + x * 1) + x(1 + x)) = -19
((1 + 1x) + x(1 + x)) = -19
(1 + 1x + (1 * x + x * x)) = -19
(1 + 1x + (1x + x2)) = -19

Combine like terms: 1x + 1x = 2x
(1 + 2x + x2) = -19

Solving
1 + 2x + x2 = -19

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
1 + 19 + 2x + x2 = -19 + 19

Combine like terms: 1 + 19 = 20
20 + 2x + x2 = -19 + 19

Combine like terms: -19 + 19 = 0
20 + 2x + x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-20' to each side of the equation.
20 + 2x + -20 + x2 = 0 + -20

Reorder the terms:
20 + -20 + 2x + x2 = 0 + -20

Combine like terms: 20 + -20 = 0
0 + 2x + x2 = 0 + -20
2x + x2 = 0 + -20

Combine like terms: 0 + -20 = -20
2x + x2 = -20

The x term is 2x.  Take half its coefficient (1).
Square it (1) and add it to both sides.

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
2x + 1 + x2 = -20 + 1

Reorder the terms:
1 + 2x + x2 = -20 + 1

Combine like terms: -20 + 1 = -19
1 + 2x + x2 = -19

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
