Answer:
Let the Required Number be n.
☯ According to the Question :
⇢ 8(Number) + (Number)² = – 15
⇢ 8n + n² = – 15
⇢ n² + 8n + 15 = 0
⇢ n² + (5 + 3)n + 15 = 0
⇢ n² + 5n + 3n + 15 = 0
⇢ n(n + 5) + 3(n + 5) = 0
⇢ (n + 3)(n + 5) = 0
⇢ n = – 3⠀or,⠀n = – 5
∴ Hence, Number can be either – 3 or – 5.

☢ VERIFICATION :
⋆ When Number = – 3
⟶ 8n + n² = – 15
⟶ 8(– 3) + (– 3)² = – 15
⟶ – 24 + 9 = – 15
⟶ – 15 = – 15 ⠀⠀Hence, Verified!
⋆ When Number = – 5
⟶ 8n + n² = – 15
⟶ 8(– 5) + (– 5)² = – 15
⟶ – 40 + 25 = – 15
⟶ – 15 = – 15 ⠀⠀Hence, Verified!
