Answer to Problem 16E
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Calculation:
We’ll have to complete the expression from the left side, to create a perfect square.
We’ll be guided by the formula that gives the perfect square.
We’ve divided both sides the equation. Now it’s much more easier to complete the square from the left.
We’ll identify the missing term that completes the square.
The term that completes the square is 4.
We’ll add both sides the missing term, to keep the equality.
We’ll combine the terms from the right side.
