The quadratic equation in its generic form is:
 ax2 + bx + c
 To complete squares we must add the following term:
 (b / 2) ^ 2
 The equation is:
 ax2 + bx + c + (b / 2) ^ 2
 We have the following equation:
 x ^ 2 - 5x + k = 7
 By completing squares we have:
 x ^ 2 - 5x + (-5/2) ^ 2 = 7 + (-5/2) ^ 2
 Rewriting:
 x ^ 2 - 5x + 6.25 = 7 + 6.25
 Answer:
 
A constant term should be used to complete the square is:
 
6.25

Eight phenotypes were present.  

Df is provided also by a number of phenotypes -1 The degree of freedom

\to df = 8-1= 7

For p-value 0,9, Chi-square is 2.83;

The p-value of 0.75 is 4.5. Chi-square

Chi-sqaure value is observed at 2.965.

That means 0.90>p-value>0.75.
