Value of q is
(105)/(8) .

Explanation:

We have , the equation
-2x^2+3=-9x is rewritten in the form of
-2(x-p)^2 +q=0 . We need to find What is the value of q . Let's find out:

Let's simplify equation
-2x^2+3=-9x into
-2(x-p)^2 +q=0 :


-2x^2+3=-9x


-2x^2+9x+3=0


2x^2-9x=3


2(x^2-(9)/(2)x)=3


(x^2-(9)/(2)x)=(3)/(2)


(x^2-2(1)(9)/(4)x)=(3)/(2)


(x^2-2(1)(9)/(4)x) + ((9)/(4))^2=(3)/(2) + ((9)/(4))^2


(x-(9)/(4))^2=(3)/(2) + ((81)/(16))


(x-(9)/(4))^2=(24)/(16) + ((81)/(16))


(x-(9)/(4))^2=(105)/(16)


-2(x-(9)/(4))^2=-2((105)/(16))


-2(x-(9)/(4))^2=-(105)/(8)


-2(x-(9)/(4))^2+(105)/(8) = 0

Comparing this equation to
-2(x-p)^2 +q=0 ,
q =(105)/(8) .

Therefore ,Value of q is
(105)/(8) .
