Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

When you're completing the square you're adding (b/2)^2 which in this case is (-5)^2 or 25. This is because when you rewrite it as a square binomial you write it in the form (x+(b/2))^2 which is going to result in x^2+b+(b/2)^2. Since you need to reach 25 you need to add 45 since the last value is at -20.
