x^{2}+4x+4=x\left(x+4,9\right)+9
Use binomial theorem \left(a+b\right)^{2}=a^{2}+2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(x+2\right)^{2}.
x^{2}+4x+4=x^{2}+4,9x+9
Use the distributive property to multiply x by x+4,9.
x^{2}+4x+4-x^{2}=4,9x+9
Subtract x^{2} from both sides.
4x+4=4,9x+9
Combine x^{2} and -x^{2} to get 0.
4x+4-4,9x=9
Subtract 4,9x from both sides.
-0,9x+4=9
Combine 4x and -4,9x to get -0,9x.
-0,9x=9-4
Subtract 4 from both sides.
-0,9x=5
Subtract 4 from 9 to get 5.
x=\frac{5}{-0,9}
Divide both sides by -0,9.
x=\frac{50}{-9}
Expand \frac{5}{-0,9} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.
x=-\frac{50}{9}
Fraction \frac{50}{-9} can be rewritten as -\frac{50}{9} by extracting the negative sign.
