Answer:
(x + 9)² = 36
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² + 18x + 57 = 12 ( subtract 57 from both sides )
x² + 18x = - 45
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to both sides
x² + 2(9)x + 81 = - 45 + 81
(x + 9)² = 36

Answer:
7 & 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first number be x
2nd number = 8 less than 3 times the other
2nd number = 3x - 8
Their sum = 20
X + 3x - 8 = 20
4x -8 = 20
Collect like terms
4x = 20+8
4x = 28
Divide both sides by 4
4x/4 = 28/4
X = 7
First number = 7
2nd number = 3x - 8
= 3(7) - 8
= 21 -8
= 13.
Therefore the numbers are 7 and 13
