The "solution" of an equation is the number that 'x' must be in order to make the

equation a true statement.

x2 + 8x + 20 is just a number, whose value depends on the value of 'x'. It's not

an equation, it asks no question, makes no statement, and poses no problem, so

it needs no answer, and there is nothing to "solve".
