4%28X%2B1%29%5E2=64
DIVIDE WITH 4 ON BOTH SIDES
+4%28X%2B1%29%5E2%2F4+=64%2F4
+%28X%2B1%29%5E2=16
+%28X%2B1%29+=sqrt%2816%29
+x%2B1+=4+or+-4
if X+1 =4
X= 4-1
X=3
IF X+1 = -4
X= -4-1
X=-5
Hence X = 3 or -5

4%28x%2B1%29%5E2=64
%28x%2B1%29%5E2=64%2F4
%28x%2B1%29%5E2=16
%28x%2B1%29=sqrt%2816%29
%28x%2B1%29=4 or %28x%2B1%29=-4
if %28x%2B1%29=4=>x=4-1=>x=3
if %28x%2B1%29=-4=>x=-4-1=>x=-5
