Completing the square is done as follows:
1. Write the equation in a way that the constants are in the right side while the terms with x are on the left.
<span>9x2 +54x = 7
</span>
2. Make sure that the coefficient of the x^2 term is 1.
<span>9(x2 + 6x) = 7
</span>
3. Adding a term to both sides that will complete the square in the left side. This is done by dividing the coefficient of the x term by 2 and squaring it. Note: The same amount should be added to the right side to balance the equation.
<span>9(x2 + 6x + 9) = 7 + 81
9(x+3)^2 = 88
</span>
If x + y = 6, then solve for y to get: y = 6 - x.
Now replace y with 6 - x in both equations.
(5x)/3 + 6 - x = c
2(6 - x) = c - 4x
The upper equation is solved for c.
Now we solve the lower equation for c.
c = 2(6 - x) + 4x
c = 12 - 2x + 4x
c = 2x + 12
Since we have two equations solved for c, we substitute to get
(5x)/3 + 6 - x = 2x + 12
This is an equation in only x, so we can solve for x.
(5x)/3 - 3x = 6
5x - 9x = 18
-4x = 18
x = -9/2
Now we solve for y.
x + y = 6
-9/2 + y = 6
y = 9/2 + 12/2
y = 21/2
Now we solve for c.
c = (5x)/3 + y
c = (5 * (-9/2))/3 + 21/2
c = -45/6 + 21/2
c = -15/2 + 21/2
c = 6/2
c = 3
Answer: c = 3
