1 answer:

4 0

So first convert to common denomenator( bottom number)
'
4 and 14
find least common multiple
factor
4=2 times 2
14=2 times 7
Least Common Multiple=2 times 2 times 7=28

1/4 times 7/7=7/28
8/14 times 2/2=16/28
add
5 1/4+8/14=5+1/4+8/14=5+7/28+16/28=5+23/28

the answer is 5 23/28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 2x = 9

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(1)x + 1² = 9 + 1²
