We have that \begin{align*}
3^{x^2+4x+4}&=9^{x+2}\\
\Rightarrow\qquad 3^{x^2+4x+4}&=3^{2x+4}\\
\Rightarrow\qquad x^2+4x+4&=2x+4\\
\Rightarrow\qquad x^2+2x&=0\\
\Rightarrow\qquad x(x+2)&=0\\
\Rightarrow\qquad x&=0,-2.
\end{align*}Therefore, the sum of all possible values of $x$ is $0+(-2)=\boxed{-2}$.

To solve the equation \(3^{x^2 + 4x + 4} = 9^{x + 2}\), we first express both sides with the same base. Since \(9 = 3^2\), the right side becomes \((3^2)^{x + 2} = 3^{2(x + 2)} = 3^{2x + 4}\). Equating the exponents:

\[
x^2 + 4x + 4 = 2x + 4
\]

Simplify by subtracting \(2x + 4\) from both sides:

\[
x^2 + 2x = 0
\]

Factor:

\[
x(x + 2) = 0
\]

The solutions are \(x = 0\) and \(x = -2\). Summing these values gives \(0 + (-2) = -2\).

Verification:
- For \(x = 0\), both sides equal \(3^4 = 81\).
- For \(x = -2\), both sides equal \(3^0 = 1\).

Thus, the sum of all possible \(x\) is **-2**.

GPT-4o To solve the equation \( 3^{x^2 + 4x + 4} = 9^{x + 2} \), we first note that the base 9 can be rewritten in terms of base 3, since \( 9 = 3^2 \). Therefore, the equation becomes:

\[ 3^{x^2 + 4x + 4} = (3^2)^{x + 2} \]
\[ 3^{x^2 + 4x + 4} = 3^{2(x + 2)} \]

Since the bases are the same, we can set the exponents equal to each other:

\[ x^2 + 4x + 4 = 2(x + 2) \]

Next, we simplify the right-hand side of the equation:

\[ x^2 + 4x + 4 = 2x + 4 \]

Subtract \( 2x + 4 \) from both sides to set the equation to zero:

\[ x^2 + 4x + 4 - 2x - 4 = 0 \]
\[ x^2 + 2x = 0 \]

Factor out the common term \( x \):

\[ x(x + 2) = 0 \]

This gives us two possible solutions for \( x \):

\[ x = 0 \quad \text{or} \quad x = -2 \]

The sum of all possible values of \( x \) is:

\[ 0 + (-2) = -2 \]

Thus, the answer is:

C. -2

## Step 1: Rewrite the equation with the same base
We can rewrite the equation $3^{x^2+4x+4}=9^{x+2}$ using the fact that $9=3^2$. This gives us $3^{x^2+4x+4}=(3^2)^{x+2}=3^{2x+4}$.

## Step 2: Equate the exponents
Since the bases are the same, we can equate the exponents: $x^2+4x+4=2x+4$.

## Step 3: Solve the quadratic equation
We can simplify the equation by subtracting $2x+4$ from both sides, giving us $x^2+2x=0$. Factoring out $x$, we get $x(x+2)=0$.

## Step 4: Find the solutions
This gives us two possible solutions: $x=0$ and $x=-2$.

## Step 5: Calculate the sum of the solutions
The sum of the solutions is $0+(-2)=-2$.

The final answer is: $\boxed{C}$

Explanation: We can rewrite $9^{x+2}$ as $(3^2)^{x+2}=3^{2(x+2)}$. So the equation becomes $3^{x^2+4x+4}=3^{2(x+2)}$. Since the bases are equal, the exponents must be equal. So we have $x^2+4x+4=2(x+2)$. Simplifying this equation gives $x^2+2x=0$. Factoring out an x gives $x(x+2)=0$. So the solutions are $x=0$ and $x=-2$. The sum of these solutions is $0+(-2)=-2$.

doubao We can rewrite $9$ as $3^2$. So $9^{x+2}=(3^2)^{x+2}=3^{2(x+2)}=3^{2x+4}$. Then the equation becomes $3^{x^2+4x+4}=3^{2x+4}$. So $x^2+4x+4=2x+4$. Rearranging gives $x^2+2x=0$, which factors as $x(x+2)=0$. So $x=0$ or $x=-2$. The sum of the possible values is $0+(-2)=-2$. So the answer is C. C
minimax To solve the equation $3^{x^2+4x+4}=9^{x+2}$, we can start by expressing the right side of the equation in terms of base 3, since 9 is a power of 3. We know that $9 = 3^2$, so we can rewrite the equation as:

$3^{x^2+4x+4} = (3^2)^{x+2}$

Now, apply the power rule $(a^b)^c = a^{bc}$ to the right side:

$3^{x^2+4x+4} = 3^{2(x+2)}$

This simplifies to:

$3^{x^2+4x+4} = 3^{2x+4}$

Since the bases are the same, we can set the exponents equal to each other:

$x^2 + 4x + 4 = 2x + 4$

Now, we can solve for x by subtracting 2x from both sides and subtracting 4 from both sides:

$x^2 + 4x + 4 - 2x - 4 = 2x + 4 - 2x - 4$

$x^2 + 2x = 0$

Factor out an x:

$x(x + 2) = 0$

This gives us two solutions:

$x = 0$ or $x + 2 = 0 \Rightarrow x = -2$

The sum of all possible values of x is:

$0 + (-2) = -2$

So the answer is:

C. -2

kimi To solve the equation \(3^{x^2+4x+4}=9^{x+2}\), we can start by expressing both sides of the equation with the same base. Since \(9\) can be written as \(3^2\), we can rewrite the equation as:

\[3^{x^2+4x+4} = (3^2)^{x+2}\]

Now, we can apply the exponent rule \((a^m)^n = a^{mn}\) to the right side:

\[3^{x^2+4x+4} = 3^{2(x+2)}\]

Next, we can simplify the exponent on the right side:

\[3^{x^2+4x+4} = 3^{2x+4}\]

Since the bases are the same, we can set the exponents equal to each other:

\[x^2 + 4x + 4 = 2x + 4\]

Now, we can solve for \(x\) by subtracting \(2x + 4\) from both sides:

\[x^2 + 4x + 4 - 2x - 4 = 0\]
\[x^2 + 2x = 0\]

Factor out an \(x\) from the left side:

\[x(x + 2) = 0\]

This gives us two possible solutions for \(x\):

\[x = 0 \quad \text{or} \quad x = -2\]

The sum of all possible values of \(x\) is \(0 + (-2) = -2\).

zhipu To solve for the sum of all possible values of \( x \) in the equation \( 3^{x^2 + 4x + 4} = 9^{x + 2} \), we first express both sides of the equation with the same base.

Recall that \( 9 \) can be written as \( 3^2 \). Therefore, we can rewrite the equation as:
\[ 3^{x^2 + 4x + 4} = (3^2)^{x + 2} \]

Using the property of exponents \((a^m)^n = a^{mn}\), we can simplify the right-hand side:
\[ (3^2)^{x + 2} = 3^{2(x + 2)} = 3^{2x + 4} \]

Now, the equation becomes:
\[ 3^{x^2 + 4x + 4} = 3^{2x + 4} \]

Since the bases are the same, we can set the exponents equal to each other:
\[ x^2 + 4x + 4 = 2x + 4 \]

Subtract \( 2x + 4 \) from both sides to set the equation to zero:
\[ x^2 + 4x + 4 - 2x - 4 = 0 \]
\[ x^2 + 2x = 0 \]

Factor the quadratic equation:
\[ x(x + 2) = 0 \]

This gives us two solutions:
\[ x = 0 \]
\[ x = -2 \]

The sum of these possible values of \( x \) is:
\[ 0 + (-2) = -2 \]

Therefore, the correct answer is:

deepseekv3 To solve the equation \( 3^{x^2 + 4x + 4} = 9^{x + 2} \), follow these steps:

1. **Express both sides with the same base:**
- Since \( 9 = 3^2 \), we can rewrite the right side:
\[
9^{x + 2} = (3^2)^{x + 2} = 3^{2(x + 2)}
\]
- Now the equation becomes:
\[
3^{x^2 + 4x + 4} = 3^{2(x + 2)}
\]

2. **Set the exponents equal:**
- Since the bases are the same, the exponents must be equal:
\[
x^2 + 4x + 4 = 2(x + 2)
\]

3. **Simplify the equation:**
- Expand the right side:
\[
x^2 + 4x + 4 = 2x + 4
\]
- Move all terms to the left side:
\[
x^2 + 2x = 0
\]
- Factor the equation:
\[
x(x + 2) = 0
\]

4. **Find the solutions:**
- Set each factor equal to zero:
\[
x = 0 \quad \text{or} \quad x = -2
\]

5. **Calculate the sum of all possible values of \( x \):**
\[
0 + (-2) = -2
\]

However, let's double-check the simplification step to ensure accuracy.

**Revisiting Step 2:**
\[
x^2 + 4x + 4 = 2(x + 2)
\]
Expanding the right side:
\[
x^2 + 4x + 4 = 2x + 4
\]
Subtract \( 2x + 4 \) from both sides:
\[
x^2 + 2x = 0
\]
Factor:
\[
x(x + 2) = 0
\]
Solutions:
\[
x = 0 \quad \text{or} \quad x = -2
\]
Sum of solutions:
\[
0 + (-2) = -2
\]

Therefore, the correct answer is:

\boxed{C}
