Question

Solving equation using the completing the square (a).3p(p+4)=p(p+2)​

Answer 1

p = 0

p = - 5

Explanation:

3p(p + 4) = p(p + 2)​

3p² + 12p - (p² + 2p) = 0

3p² + 12p - p² - 2p = 0

3p² + 10p - p² = 0

2p² + 10p = 0

2p(p + 5) = 0

p = 0

p + 5 = 0

p + 5 - 5 = 0 - 5

p = - 5

Answer 2

P = 0, -5
