\bf \qquad \textit{perfect square trinomial} \\\\ (a\pm b)^2\implies a^2\pm \stackrel{\stackrel{\text{\small 2}\cdot \sqrt{\textit{\small a}^2}\cdot \sqrt{\textit{\small b}^2}}{\downarrow }}{2ab} + b^2 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\bf x^2+15x+\boxed{?}^2\implies \stackrel{\textit{we know the middle term is}}{2\sqrt{x^2}\cdot \sqrt{\boxed{?}^2}\implies 2x\boxed{?}}\qquad then\qquad 2x\boxed{?}=15x \\\\\\ \boxed{?}=\cfrac{15x}{2x}\implies \boxed{?}=\cfrac{15}{2}\qquad \impliedby \textit{we should add that much \underline{squared}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ x^2+15x+\left( \cfrac{15}{2} \right)^2\implies \left(x+ \cfrac{15}{2} \right)^2

How do you solve 3 3/4a+3+6=87 in multi step equations
Dovator [93]
If you would like to solve the equation 3 3/4 * a + 3 + 6 = 87, you can do it using the following steps:

3 3/4 * a + 3 + 6 = 87
15/4 * a = 87 - 3 - 6
15/4 * a = 78    /*4/15
a = 78 * 4/15
a = 104/5
a = 20.8

The correct result is 20.8.

Answer:

n = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 lines are the same length so

4n + 12 = 2n + 28

4n - 2n = 18 - 12

2n = 16

n = 8.
