Answer:
x = -14 and x=0
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+7)^2-49=0
Add 49 to both sides
(x+7)^2-49+49=0+49
(x+7)^2 = 49
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x+7)^2) = ±sqrt(49)
(x+7) = ±sqrt(49)
x+7 = ±7
Subtract 7 from each side to isolate x
x+7-7 = -7±7
x = -7±7
x = -7+7 and x = -7-7
x = 0 and x=-14
