Question

When you apply the method to complete the square to find the solution to the equation

2x^2 +3x +3=4
What term should we sum/add on both sides of the equation?

A. 9
B. 9/4
C. 3/2
D. 9/16

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

2x²+3x=4-3=1

2x²+3x=1

to make it a perfect square we divide the coeff of X by 2 then square it and add it to both sides

=(3/2)²=9/4
