Answer:
(x + 1)² + x² = 221
(x² + 2x + 1) + x² = 221
x² + 2x + 1 + x² = 221
2x² + 2x + 1 = 221
2x² + 2x = 221 - 1
2 (x² + x) = 220
x² + x = 220/2
x² + x = 110
x² + x - 110 = 0
x² + 11x - 10x - 110 = 0
x (x + 11) - 10 (x + 11) = 0
(x + 11) (x - 10) = 0
x + 11 = 0 or x - 10 = 0 [Zero Product Rule]
x = -11 or x = 10
x = -11 or 10
